Property details
The Castle is situated in the bustling Welsh town of Shotton, Flintshire. Shotton is a town and community amongst 12 other counties in Flintshire, lying within Deeside, along the River Dee, adjoining Connah’s Quay near the border with England. It’s located five miles west of Chester and has excellent transport links to the Roman city. The pub itself is nestled amongst a densely populated housing estate just off the main road through the town.

Trading style
The Castle has all the amenities you would want from a community pub. It’s got plenty of trading area which is supplied by a fantastic bar stocking a huge range of lagers, ciders, and traditional ales, complemented by a great back bar providing a great range of gins, rums, vodkas, and party spirits, as well as fridges stocked with a range of beers and fruit cider. There is BT and Sky Sports which brings in additional trade on match days and throughout the week. Live music has been popular at weekends with a mix of DJs and live bands. Although there is no food at present the new licensee may wish to introduce a small back bar snack offering bringing additional income into the business.
There is plenty of opportunity to develop on the pub’s reputation for sport as well as introducing a small food offer. Competitive pricing on great brands supported by activities such as quiz nights, karaoke, live music, acoustic sets and of course live sport. The new licensee will need an understanding of the area and be able to demonstrate how they will develop this business and take it to the next level but ensuring they keep the Castle at the heart of its community.
