Filey holiday park pub wants to serve alcohol from 08:00

Pub chain J D Wetherspoon signed a deal with Haven earlier this month

A pub at a holiday park in North Yorkshire has applied for permission to serve alcohol to guests from 08:00, two hours earlier than its current licence.

It comes after Haven Holidays signed a deal with JD Wetherspoon to operate at its parks, with the first one being at Primrose Valley in Filey.

The venue, currently known as the Mash and Barrel, currently serves alcohol from 10:00 to 02:00.

Haven has applied to North Yorkshire Council to change its license.

According to the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS), locals and residents can send representations to the licensing authority by 20 February.

Haven is also proposing changes to the layout of the venue, although there are no changes proposed to "the remaining existing licensed areas".

It has also applied to the council for permission to set up a bingo hall at its Blue Dolphin Holiday Park in Filey's Gristhorpe Bay.

The leisure company, which runs 38 parks in the UK, said the Wetherspoons at its Primrose Valley site would open in March.

Haven announced that the new venue is set to have "all the hallmarks of a beloved Wetherspoon venue", including a variety of menu options and catering for a range of dietary requirements.
