Nestled in the picturesque South Wales village of Portskewett, just a mile from the English border, this welcoming two-bar pub offers a fantastic opportunity for anyone looking to run a community pub in Monmouthshire. Positioned prominently on the village high street, the pub sits right at the heart of local life, making it an ideal choice for operators who want to build a loyal customer base and become a key part of a thriving rural community.

The layout lends itself perfectly to a varied, all-day offer. The traditional locals’ bar provides a relaxed, friendly setting complete with a pool table — a great asset for driving regular wet-led trade and hosting local teams or mid-week community events. This side of the pub attracts returning regulars, walkers and residents looking for a warm, familiar spot to unwind.

Alongside this, the spacious restaurant/lounge seats around 40 covers, presenting a strong food-led pub opportunity. The attached, well-equipped trade kitchen offers plenty of scope to introduce a high-quality menu, seasonal dishes, themed food nights or popular classics that appeal to families and visitors. This makes the site especially attractive to operators wanting to build a strong reputation as a destination dining pub in South Wales.

Outside, the pub benefits from a front seating area — ideal for summer drinks or passing trade — along with a small rear area and a convenient on-site car park. These features add flexibility for al fresco dining, small functions and busy weekend service, helping to broaden the pub’s appeal and maximise revenue potential.

Portskewett’s close-knit community, combined with its proximity to key routes and the Severn crossings, means the pub draws a healthy mix of locals, families, commuters, and visitors exploring the region. This creates steady footfall and long-term growth potential for an operator eager to develop a successful village pub business.
