Pleasley lies between Chesterfield and Mansfield, only 5 miles southeast of Bolsover and 2.5 miles northwest of Mansfield. The River Meden, which forms the county boundary in the area, runs through the village.

Amenities, facilities and businesses within Pleasley include a pharmacy, two primary schools, a nursery, the Pleasley Pit Country Park, Nature Reserve & Mining Museum, a community centre, an off- licence and an MOT/Service centre. The nearby town of Mansfield provides larger shopping outlets, supermarkets and fuel stations.

Our husband and wife clients have owned and operated The Nags Head since June 2013 but now wish to offer the property to the freehold market in order to retire. As a consequence of the vendors’ ill-health, the business is traded as a lifestyle operation and our clients concede that a new operator could expand upon the limited opening hours and broaden the food menu (which only currently consists of Sunday lunches).

In spite of its limited opening hours, the business continues to support pool, skittles and darts teams, as well as a dominoes group. It also caters for various functions and events such as funeral wakes, birthday celebrations and lunch clubs. The pub sells a selection of real ales which are popular with both local and destination trade.

Opening hours:
Monday to Thursday 15:00 - 21:30
Friday 15:00 - 23:00
Saturday 12:00 - 23:00
Saturday 12:00 - 23:00
Sunday 12:00 - 21:30
