The boutique hospitality group acquired the lease for their first gastropub, The Five Alls, in August 2012 before buying the freehold of The Plough in March 2015. The tenancy lease for The Bull Hotel was entered into in August 2016 and, following a major refurbishment, reopened for trading in July 2017.
