    Location

    Llwynmawr is a small, picturesque village located in the Ceiriog Valley in northeast Wales. The Ceiriog Valley is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which offers 12 miles of scenic country roads; Offa’s Dyke Path also crosses the valley. Although very rural, the village is in close proximity to the towns of Llangollen, Chirk and Oswestry. Tourist attractions in the area include Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall and the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and Visitor Centre, and Snowdonia National Park is within easy reach.

    The village lies just off the B5400 and minutes from the A5 to Llangollen and Corwen and to the A483 which offers links to Wrexham to the north and Shropshire to the south.

    The Business

    The Mulberry Inn is ‘once discovered, never forgotten’ place to stay – a delightful country inn which has been under our clients ownership for over ten years and has overseen huge investment and renovations during that time to offer the welcoming and elegant hotel we see today. We are advised that net sales are in excess £1,000,000 per annum with occupancy levels in the region of 90% all year round. The business sees much repeat trade from walkers and cyclists visiting the valleys as well as tourist groups from Australia who annually book for 120 night per year with our client working with two other tourist groups. Additionally, we are advised bookings are in place up to summer 2027.

    Planning has previously been approved for six letting rooms to the rear of the building which would include four letting rooms and two bedroom owners' accommodation. This planning has now lapsed. There is potential to add hot tubs and glamping pods, subject to the relevant planning permissions.

    This turn key business is the perfect opportunity for an experienced operator/chef or family to take on this established and hugely successful business which is a 4* standard hotel and is rated number 1 on Tripadvisor and boasting excellent reviews across all platforms. There is potential to increase trade by making the venue available for weddings, private events, functions and conferences and by offering an all-day food/bar menu.
