DENBIGHSHIRE - WELL PRESENTED TOWN CENTRE PUB

The Cob & Pen is located on High Street in Rhyl town centre. The property is surrounded by other retail outlets and hospitality venues and is just a 5-minute walk from Rhyl Beach, Marine Lake and Kinmel Bay. The town is popular with tourists during the summer months with its seaquarium, seaside attractions, holiday parks and walking routes.

The property sits just off the A525 which links the town to the North Wales Expressway (A55) which, in turn, gives access to Chester and the North West of England northbound and Snowdonia National Park southbound. Rhyl train station and bus station are both just 2 minutes from the Cob & Pen. The town is served by trains running on the North Wales Coast Railway Line which provides links to Holyhead, London, Cardiff and Crewe.

This substantial property is a three-storey building of brick construction with black and cream painted elevations. It has one flat roof and a pitched tile roof to the main. The internal trade areas have been subject to much investment over the past 12 months and now offer modern décor and furnishings throughout.

The Cob & Pen is one of Rhyl’s leading public houses due to its friendly and welcoming atmosphere, live music events, pool and darts teams and showing of live sporting events. Recent investment in the trade spaces and a new bar menu have attracted a new clientele from the local and surrounding areas. The pub is wet-led, hence there is potential to increase sales further by taking advantage of the well-equipped trade kitchen and introducing a food menu. In addition, letting the two owners’ apartments could achieve in the region of £1,200.00 per calendar month for both.

FREEHOLD £460,000 to include goodwill, fixtures and fittings. Stock at valuation in addition.
