Red Lion, Llanasa, Holywell, Flintshire, CH8 9NE

Llanasa is a charming and attractive village in one of the ancient parishes of Flintshire, situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a designated conservation area. The village lies approximately one mile from the coast between the towns of Prestatyn and Holywell and is popular with walkers and cyclists due to its close proximity to Offa's Dkye, the Clwydian Way and the North Wales Coast cycle path. It is also within easy reach of the North Wales seaside towns of Rhyl, Prestatyn and Talacre. The village is situated just off the A5151 which is served by junction 31 of the A55 North Wales Expressway with the nearby A548 providing links to the North Wales coast.

The Red Lion was built during the third quarter of the 19th century as a house but was listed as a public house in 1871. The Grade II listed building is a two-storey public house with white rubble stones under a pitched slate roof, with an adjacent former barn building comprising five en suite letting rooms.

The Red Lion has been closed since 2019. Prior to this, it was let on a traditional pub company style lease and therefore no trading accounts are available. Prospective purchasers will need to reach their own conclusion as to the potential trade and profitability which can be enjoyed at this outlet.

The business is located in an affluent village close to many points of interest and coastal towns. It offers scope to create a high-quality dining inn offering fine ales and good food, as well as providing income from the five en suite letting rooms.

No direct approach to be made to the business; please direct all communications through Sidney Phillips.
