Lady Elizabeth

The Lady Elizabeth, located in the heart of the Suffolk market town of Sudbury is an attractive grade II listed pub with the added advantage of 7 boutique style en-suite letting rooms.

The pub is packed full of character and offers a mixed food/drink offer, focusing on fresh ingredients for home cooked pub meals. The pub also offers regular entertainment and is part of the local drinking circuit. This well presented pub would benefit from a new lease of life, enhancing its reputation as a destination venue in the town, attracting both the locals for drinks and meals, as well as tourists visiting the town. The letting rooms could be marketed more aggressively to grown occupation and the event programme could be further developed to build trade during off peak times. We are searching for an enthusiastic operator with experience in pubs or hospitality, and a genuine passion for outstanding service. The right partner will build on The Lady Elizabeth’s history, blending excellent cuisine, warm and welcoming service, and boutique accommodation. A commitment to local sourcing, engaging community events, and delivering memorable experiences will help transform The Lady Elizabeth into one of Sudbury’s standout destinations.
