Miller Commercial of Truro are now marketing The Ship Inn at the foot of Gonvena Hill, Wadebridge off a guide price of £75,000 SAV. The public house’s name provides a link with past days when the nearby River Camel saw many sailing ships plying their trade to the town wharves with coal and timber. The Ship Inn comprises a spacious main bar area of 52.2sq.m. with open fireplaces, a 38-cover restaurant, well-appointed commercial kitchen and a large functions room with bar servery. The publican’s 3-bedroomed private accommodation is located on the first floor. The business is being offered with the benefit of a secure Punch Taverns lease with a current passing rental of £28,000 per annum exclusive. The Ship Inn has come to the market due to the current owner's other business commitments. It trades strongly enjoying much local goodwill. Trading figures for the year to March 2006 show total sales of £265,000, of which over £173,000 were wet sales. The gross profit was in the region of £146,000. Richard Gilbert of Miller Commercial’s Licensed & Leisure Dept Reports, ‘The Ship Inn is a well known hostelry in North Cornwall standing on the outskirts of the Wadebridge’s town centre, alongside the old A39 trunk road. It has the benefit of an adjacent car park and attracts passing trade in the summer as they visit the thriving riverside town, which is very much the hub of the tremendously popular Camel Trail’.
