Two flagship businesses sold by Sidney Phillips

Specialist licensed property agents Sidney Phillips are proud to announce the sale of two iconic flagship businesses in the Carmarthenshire town of Laugharne.

Brown’s is an iconic hotel residing in one of West Wales' most recognised and busy tourist locations, and is an iconic literary address, being a favourite “watering hole” of the writer and poet Dylan Thomas. Dylan Thomas’ association has brought much fame to the establishment which is known to have been frequented by many famous individuals including Charles & Camilla, President Carter, Burton & Taylor, Pattie Smith, Peter O’Toole, Mick Jagger, Pierce Brosnan and Cerys Matthews, to name but a few.

The property stands in the heart of the village and is the social “hub” of Laugharne, a must go to destination for those visiting West Wales, especially if they harbour a literary interest. This substantial Grade II listed hotel was built in 1752 and was the subject of a £1,000,000 complete refurbishment programme in 2012 which was completed to a very high standard. The premises still retain many original features, with a wealth of charm and character, and Brown’s is now an outstanding hotel offering 14 individual bedrooms, each room having its own 1950’s theme in a tastefully designed colour scheme and retro style furniture, together with specially commissioned wall art showing lovingly re-created scenes from a post-war period. This, in tandem with its well-appointed bar and restaurant, excellent catering and ancillary facilities, provides a first class business opportunity.

The purchasers, local businessman Martyn Ingram and his partner Mel Hamilton-Searle, have also purchased the New Three Mariners, Laugharne (opposite).

Brown's Hotel was sold off a freehold asking price of £795,000, with the Three Mariners sold off a freehold asking price of £395,000.
