Property description
The Griffin is a delightful stone built 5 bedroom property, under a slate roof. Itis believed to date back to the 18th Century, when it was a Drovers Inn situated in a rural location in Cwm Owen Llangynog on the B4520 between Brecon and Builth Wells. The property commands fabulous views over a vast expanse of countryside. (The property can be viewed on Google Earth, Street View by entering the post code LD2 3HY)
The market town of Builth Wells is within five miles distance and has a good range of shops, hotels, leisure centre, golf course, primary and secondary schools. Brecon is approximately ten miles away and offers another good range of shops, theatre, hotels, schools and college, a castle and the Brecon Jazz Festival is held annually in the town.
The Griffin traded for many years as a popular Country Inn and Restaurant, before being converted into an impressive dwelling, which has retained the character of the building and many of the original features.
There is the potential to trade again as a restaurant with bed and breakfast (pending the necessary planning permission). Therefore offering a good business opportunity with the Royal Welsh Showground in nearby Builth Wells, which also hosts numerous events throughout the year.
