The search is on for new tenants to take over a traditional Nottinghamshire pub that's getting a facelift. The Rose and Crown, in Cotgrave, has been closed for several months but improvements should be finished shortly.
Described as friendly and relaxed by customers, the pub in Main Road, was also praised for its beer. Owners Stonegate Pub Partners are now looking for someone to take charge behind the bar after "heavily investing" in the venue.
One of the improvements is a permanent heated alfresco area. Outside is getting a revamp, with a pergola at the front and another in the rear garden, decorated by festoon lighting and AstroTurf. Post and rope fencing will also be added to the existing car park.
