In all extending to 2 acres
An exciting opportunity to acquire a well-established holiday and caravan park with 30 pitches, together with a three-bedroom period cottage, one-bedroom boathouse and four luxury lodges with hot tubs.

The property occupies a unique and enviable canalside position, just a short scenic stroll from the centre of Llangollen. It is the closest holiday and caravan park to the town centre and situated adjacent to the Pavillion, this benefits enormously from events and festivals, including the world famous Eisteddfod in July each year and the music festival (boasting world renowned artists), each June and July.

Its popularity with visitors enhances the area’s lifestyle appeal and offers excellent potential for tourism-related income.
