Pub that has been serving people for 800 years is up for sale

A historic pub in the Welsh border area, The Swan Inn in Pontfadog, Ceiriog Valley, is now on the market, after serving guests for an impressive 800 years. Dating back to the 13th century, with the current structure standing since the early 1800s, the pub has become a landmark in the region. The current owners have undertaken extensive renovations on the property and have decided to sell it through estate agent Bowen for £395,000.

Described as a thriving country pub, The Swan Inn offers a traditional bar, restaurant, three en suite letting rooms, and separate living accommodation. Located in the heart of Pontfadog village, in the picturesque Ceiriog Valley, the pub is conveniently situated near larger towns like Oswestry, Llangollen, and Wrexham, as well as major trunk roads A5 and A483. The property also features amenities such as a catering kitchen, beer garden, storage yard, and off-road car parking.

Under the same family ownership since 2017, The Swan Inn has seen significant renovations and business growth. The pub has built a strong reputation among locals and visitors alike, with the area being known for outdoor and country pursuits. There is potential for further business growth through extended opening hours, marketing efforts, and expanding the letting business.

The historic significance of The Swan Inn, combined with its charming location and potential for business expansion, presents an exciting opportunity for potential buyers looking to own a piece of Welsh history.
