What Our Tenants Say

At Gray & Sons, we value the experiences of our tenants and are committed to supporting them in every way.

Here’s what some of our current tenants have to say about their journey with us:

“Nobody knows our business better than ourselves. So, the freedom offered by Gray’s to develop our business as we see fit is one of the most important features of being a Gray’s tenant. Gray’s attitude towards the upkeep of their properties is second to none. All concerns are dealt with in a timely manner.” 

Dave & Sheila Hunt are successful multiple operators across Essex and have been at the Duke of York in Billericay since 2015

“With Gray & Sons, a tenant can make the decisions that they think are best for their business - the freedom is a huge positive. There will always be issues with old buildings, as soon as something comes up, Gray’s are quick to fix it.”

Max and Jess Castledine have picked up where Max’s mother and father left off at The Queen’s Head, Boreham, continuing to keep the tenancy in the family along with their second Gray’s tenancy, The Orange Tree, Chelmsford.

“The application process was very easy with plenty of information on the pub and what was required to complete the application. The broad beer portfolio Gray’s offer allows us to change our ales every day from breweries all over England.”

Naomi Hammett took her first pub tenancy with us 3 years ago at The Endeavour, Chelmsford and is now an experienced publican with numerous CAMRA awards.
