Rare Opportunity to Acquire The Ship Inn, Portloe – Freehold for Sale at £550,000
Vickery Holman, the leading commercial property agents, have been instructed to market the freehold of The Ship Inn, an attractive and well-maintained public house located in the picturesque harbour village of Portloe on Cornwall’s sought-after Roseland Peninsula. The property is being offered with a guide price of £550,000, and interested parties are invited to submit offers by midday on June 4th.
This charming and characterful inn presents a rare opportunity to acquire a freehold hospitality business in a prime coastal location. The property features a spacious public bar and dining area, two en suite letting rooms, and a self-contained flat, offering flexible accommodation for an owner-operator or a live-in manager. Externally, the inn benefits from an attractive beer garden, a customer car park, and a stone-built former garage and store, providing potential for additional use.
The Ship Inn has been successfully operated under tenancy by St Austell Brewery for many years, and with the Roseland Peninsula being a highly desirable tourist destination, there is strong potential for a new owner to build on its existing reputation. The property may appeal to experienced hospitality operators looking to take advantage of the region’s thriving tourism trade, as well as local community groups keen to preserve its use as a village pub.
Michael Easton, hospitality specialist at Vickery Holman, commented: “Opportunities to acquire freehold pubs in such a prime coastal location are incredibly rare. The Ship Inn has been a key part of the Portloe community for many years, and we expect significant interest from both experienced publicans and local buyers keen to see it thrive for years to come.”
Due to increased staycation demand and the popularity of the Roseland Peninsula as a holiday hotspot, The Ship Inn represents an exciting investment opportunity. For more information or to arrange a viewing, interested parties should contact Vickery Holman’s Truro office as soon as possible.
