Unicorn
With an extensive, visionary refurbishment planned and located a stone's throw from surfing hot spot Porthtowan Beach, this gorgeous pub is a superb business opportunity. The surrounding area consists of mature couples and families ensuring a steady local trade however, most of The Unicorn's trade happens during the warmer summer months. Through the planned works, amendments will be made to create a cozy venue for guests to stay and enjoy an open fire, during the winter months also.
