Summary - Bwlch y Moch, Tremadog, PORTHMADOG LL49 9SN
1 bed 1 bath Cafe
Turnkey roadside cafe with EV chargers and strong 2024 profits.
Considerable passing trade at a gateway to Snowdonia
The Cow Shed is a busy roadside café and gift shop at the gateway to Snowdonia, benefiting from considerable passing trade and on-site rapid EV charging. The business mixes hot food, snacks, drinks and retail, plus self-service vending, with a fitted commercial kitchen and outdoor seating on a refurbished terrace. Turnover for 2024 was £152k with a strong gross profit margin (73%) and an adjusted net profit of ~£66,850.
The site is a compact single-storey stone building with a substantial surfaced forecourt and off-street parking, making it highly accessible to walkers, cyclists, families and tourists. Fixtures and fittings are mostly owned and will be included in the sale (subject to inventory). The business has diversified income streams — counter sales, vending, retail, group catering and event hosting — and room to grow online sales or expand accommodation-linked offers from nearby glamping operators.
Material points to note: the opportunity is leasehold, the EPC is D, heating runs from an oil boiler, and the building’s original granite walls are assumed to have no insulation. The building footprint is modest, so continued success depends on efficient use of the trading area and maximising forecourt and vending revenue. The surrounding area is rural with seasonal tourist patterns and an overall classification of high deprivation, which may affect year-round local spend.
This is best suited to an entrepreneur or investor seeking a lifestyle hospitality business with established footfall, practical onsite advantages (EV charging, parking) and clear potential to increase revenue through events, retail growth and digital sales.
