""The Dalton Arms is situated in the lovely coastal village of Glasson Dock. The area attracts many visitors including, cyclists, walkers, bird watchers and caravan & motor home enthusiasts. The operators should be someone who can see themselves fitting into village life and will offer a warm welcome to both locals and visitors to the area. The pub is busier in the summer than the winter but the area does get visitors all year round. Ideally the new operator will have some catering experience and a desire to incorporate some of the superb local area produce in their menus. I would consider a first time appointment for the right person." Carolyn Goodwin ABM "
Set in a rural location, the Dalton Arms is a drive to venue for locals and visitors alike to enjoy the area of Glasson Dock. The audience sits predominantly in average affluence with a bias towards an older audience at a more local level - with over 60% aged 45+ - but this balances out as the radius spreads, supporting a good quality pub offer with some premium options to trade up and focusing on the key occasions for their visits.
