In current times, some might say they were mad but local business owners Nick & Jemma Beagrie are expanding their portfolio of businesses, having bought the Prince of Wales at Baslow and the Bull’s Head at Foolow from the Fischer family.
They took over from Monday 24th April and together they bring a wealth of experience in the hospitality industry. Both locally brought up, they already run several established businesses within the local area including The Old Original Bakewell Pudding Shop, The Bakewell Bakery and The Scotsman’s Pack in Hathersage. Nick has been in the trade for over 35 years having had the Scotsman’s Pack, a silver award winner for ‘Pub of the Year’ at the recent tourism awards, for over 20. Jemma started her career in the tourism sector running the busy Bakewell Pudding Shop and has been heavily involved in Visit Peak District over the years, as a patron, and feels very strongly about the local area and its success.
The Prince of Wales, Rowleys for a time, and The Bulls Head have been in the hands of the Fischer family since 2005 and 2019 respectively. During this time Max, Susan & Neil have turned them from two country pubs into award winning properties with customers returning time and time again and Nick and Jemma have their full support in taking the businesses forward.
Both Nick & Jemma are extremely passionate about the Peak District & Derbyshire; using local suppliers and producers as well as shouting about how wonderful the area is to live in and to visit as a tourist destination. Their vision for the Bulls Head and The Prince of Wales is to upkeep the traditions of wonderfully cooked local food at the highest of standards, something that has been instilled in both businesses by the Fischer’s. They are excited and very proud to be taking on these successful businesses and will deliver the same values with impeccable service; serving food and drink to remember in a friendly atmosphere.
