Market Square, LL49

FOR SALE BY PUBLIC AUCTION AT 14:00 ON 19TH MARCH 2026 AT THE PREMISES

Tremadog is a picturesque village near to Porthmadog, Gwynedd, and is located between the Llyn Peninsula and the Snowdonia National Park. The village, known as 'The Gateway to Snowdonia' is popular with tourists, who are attracted to the breathtaking scenery and outdoor activities. This is in addition to the many golfers that flock to the numerous courses situated in the nearby area. The iconic Italianate village Portmeirion as well as the Ffestiniog Welsh & Highland Railways are all within easy reach from Tremadog, as are the stunning beaches of Criccieth, Black Rock Sands and Harlech.

The village sits between the A487 and A498, and is located approximately 1 mile from Porthmadog, 7 miles from Beddgelert and 18 miles from Caernarfon, making the location ideally situated for tourists and locals. Further connectivity is available through a regular bus service to the nearby villages and towns.

The property is 18th century, Grade II listed (front only) and maintains charm from the original development of Tremadog. The Union Inn is positioned in the centre of this charming village square and was built by the notable politician William Madock. Internally, the property retains many original features that include exposed ceiling timbers, stone walls, and feature fireplaces. It is apparent that the property has been well cared for and maintained, with new double glazed sash windows and a front door installed in 2024. The main construction of the property is stone under a pitched slate roof, with a generous courtyard to the rear and separate owners' accommodation.

With the season due to get underway at Easter, this is an ideal opportunity for a new owner to take charge of a long-established and highly regarded business. The Union Inn is a traditional public house that has been operated by our client for over 20 years and is now being offered to the market due to their retirement. The business has an excellent reputation and a loyal customer base, being supported by both locals and tourists visiting the area. We are advised net sales are in the region of £300,000 per annum and offers much potential for increased trade by extending current opening hours as the current times reflect our clients' preparations to retire. With the added opportunity of being able to offer the owners' accommodation to the short-term holiday market, subject to obtaining the relevant local authority's permission. The Union Inn is known for its warm and friendly atmosphere, formal dining environment, traditional home cooked meals, Casque Mark status and boasts excellent reviews on platforms such as the CAMRA Good Beer Guide, TripAdvisor and Facebook. The Union inn was also recently presented with an award from the Ffestiniog Railway Society in special recognition of its ongoing support for its members and volunteers over the years. In our opinion, the business would ideally suit an experienced chef or family team and, due to its location and stunning setting, would offer a great work life/balance if used as a residential property too.
