Lucrative Destination Country Pub & Restaurant In Monmouthshire For Sale

Property Information

Property:

Freehold

Location:

The Horseshoe is situated in the most attractive location on raised ground with superb views over rolling pasture farmland to the West and the Brecon Beacons National Park to the East. It is approximately 8 miles from Abergavenny in the lee of the Blorenge Hills adjacent to the Brecon and Monmouth Canal which has an important mooring point at nearby Goytre Wharf. The immediate area is a popular residential location for those working in the principality of South Wales and some across the border within Bristol.

The Horseshoe has been in our clients hands since 2014 and during this period they have developed the property and business considerably. The property is appointed to a very good standard throughout and the business has developed an excellent level of repeat custom. The property’s position is a pleasant drive out from a number of areas of high population and is particularly attractive during the Summer months with customers taking the benefit of superb al fresco seating.

The property itself appears to be constructed in the main of stone and brick with render and colour washed elevations under slate roof. It has two well appointed trading areas to ground floor with a large catering kitchen. At first floor is a well planned function room which by our clients own admission is under utilised. It also enjoys three bedroom owners accommodation. The overspill car park offers excellent scope for the development of a small camping and caravan site.
