Win a New Forest Pub for £10!
The Filly Inn is up for grabs in a unique raffle
| 28 November 2008 - In the latest case of a property being offered as a raffle prize, the Filly Inn can be won by a would-be publican for the price of a £10 raffle ticket! The Filly Inn is valued at almost £400,000 and is set in the beautiful New Forest. The winner will get the remaining 20 year lease together with B&B accommodation, large restaurant and bike hire. The pub also comes with furniture, fixtures, fittings and whatever stock is unsold. | This is a fantastic opportunity for
someone longing to enter the pub trade but who does not have the
capital to get started. However we all know of course that the pub
business requires hard work, long hours and of course working capital
too.
As you would expect from its New Forest location, The Filly Inn has some fantastic walking on its doorstep. In fact we have two pub walks you can download from this site - the Setley Pond pub walk through open heathland and the Royston Wood Nature Reserve pub walk which takes you through woodlandand down to the Lymington River.
If you want to see more details about the Filly Inn and read the terms and conditions of the competition then you can visit the win-pub.com website. This link takes you straight to the terms and conditions as the homepage has some fancy graphics which take forever to load!
Reading the details, this looks like a combination between a raffle and a competition as you have to answer an easy multiple choice question to qualify (i.e. what is "pub" short for? I told you it was easy!). Having bought your ticket(s), there will be a draw to select a shortlist of 100 who will have to answer three additional questions - it does not say yet what those are but I am expecting them to be easy and included simply to avoid falling foul of gaming legislation.
If you are interested, you might like to attend the open day being held on Saturday 29 November 2008 to promote the raffle.
Note: This is not at the Filly Inn but instead is being held at the Angel Inn, Lymington High Street, and will last from 10am to 3pm.
May the best publican-to-be win!
