Adorable West Lothian pub with beer garden and log fire searches for new landlord

A charming West Lothian pub is searching for a new operator to take over and run its bar and restaurant.

Located in Broxburn just a few minutes away from South Queensferry, the Fat Pheasant is now looking for someone to run the business. A 'long-established' venue in the community, and one that has always proved popular with locals, the building sits on a busy route connecting the Queensferry Crossing to both Edinburgh and Linlithgow.

Kitted out with an adorable and rustic decor inside, the restaurant has a lot of exposed stonework and even a real log-burning fire to create a cosy atmosphere.

In addition, the pub also boasts a large beer garden and decking area that can be used for outdoor seating when the weather is at its best. Advertised this week, the leasehold currently sits at £40,000, with annual rent at £30,000.
