Regional Manager's Thoughts The Sun is traditional in appearance and would suit a good food-led operator who can build both local and passing trade. In the summer the the food becomes a more popular target for customers whereas the takeaway offer is a hit during the winter months. The garden area provides a seasonal opportunity to utilise outdoor trade. This pub is the focal point of village life, and any new publican would need to embrace this and really immerse themselves within the local community. Surrounding Area The pub is considered semi-rural within the village of Calbourne, which is an affluent area of the island with a fairly elderly population. The road in the summer can get busy as it is used as a coach route to get to Freshwater and the Needles, which are considered major tourist attractions. In the last five years, the pub has picked up trade from Tapnell Farm, a theme park with an inflatable water park, archery, and camping. Yarmouth is just a 10 minutes drive away and has local shops and schools located there. Newport, the island capital is 15 minutes' drive away, which contains the main shopping area on the island.
