DENBIGHSHIRE - ATTRACTIVE 18TH CENTURY INN

The Sun Inn is located in the beautiful Welsh village of Eryrys, Denbighshire and offers stunning views of the Clwydian Range and lays claims to be one of the highest points in Wales. The village was formerly a leading mining community with several mines still visible nearby with the surrounding area being mostly farmland. Eryrys sits in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offers many walking routes in the immediate and surrounding areas. The closest sizable towns are Mold (5 miles), Ruthin (8 miles) and Wrexham (10 miles).

The village sits just of the B5430 which links to the A494 offering routes to Mold, Ruthin and Snowdonia National Park. The A55 sits 11 miles north and offers links to North Wales coastal towns including Rhyl, Colwyn Bay and the Isle of Anglesey.

The proprietor has run the business since 2006 and is selling due to retirement. The Sun Inn sees good trade from locals, in addition to tourists who are visiting the nearby caravan site. Our clients advise a 40/60 split on food and wet sales. The business would suit an enthusiastic couple or aspiring chef with fresh ideas to take this already popular destination pub to the next level.
