The White Lion, a beautifully refurbished village pub in Glan-yr-Afon, Llanasa, Flintshire, is currently available for £700,000.

Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a Conservation Area, this stunning detached property dates back to around 1824.

The pub has undergone extensive renovation to a very high standard, combining traditional charm with modern facilities.

The trade areas include a main bar with a feature fireplace and exposed timbers, a restaurant with exposed stone walls, and a bright conservatory, together offering seating for over 60 customers.

The well-equipped kitchen features commercial catering equipment and non-slip flooring.

The owners’ accommodation is a spacious, beautifully presented three-bedroom apartment with lounge, kitchen/diner, bathroom, and shower room.

Planning permission has been granted for a two-bedroom holiday dwelling to the rear of the pub, with groundwork already underway, as well as four shepherd’s huts on adjacent grassland.

The White Lion enjoys a loyal following among locals, walkers, and holidaymakers attracted to the nearby walking and cycling routes, including Offa’s Dyke and the Clwydian Way. Net sales are reported at approximately £8,000 per week.

The pub holds a full Premises Licence for alcohol sales and is open Tuesday to Thursday from 4pm to 10pm, and Friday to Sunday from noon to 10pm, closed Mondays.

The property offers picnic-style benches outside seating around 30 people, and parking for about 15 vehicles. It benefits from good transport links via the A5151 and A55 North Wales Expressway.

The vendors suggest there is potential to increase turnover by extending opening hours, hosting private events, and developing holiday accommodation, including letting the apartment on the short-term holiday market.

For further details, interested buyers can contact Sidney Phillips estate agents on 01512 204879 or [email protected].
