Search the Public Notice PortalTHE OWNERS of a pub are planning to turn it into a house after failing to sell it.
The White Lion at Glan yr Afon, Llanasa (near Mostyn), has been on sale for the last year after undergoing an extensive refurbishment.
It has been closed since last September - but it was hoped a new owner for it could be found.
Jane and Will Mellor, who currently own and ran the pub from September 2024, has been looking to sell as her family also runs Grosvenor Construction in Kinmel Bay.
Sadly, the couple has had "no interest" from prospective buyers - leaving them having to make the difficult decision to seek a change of use.
They have submitted a planning application today (Wednesday, September 9) seeking permission for the pub, which has been in their family since 1987, to become a house.
"It will become a large family house with five bedrooms," she said. "It will have large gardens with a stream and woodland. It has a building plot / permission for glamping pods and a large parking area.
"There has been negligible viable interest from any suitable purchasers that would fit into the community.
"It’s been marketed for way over 12 months by a nationwide agent , and now a local one with no interest.
"So rather than it stand empty, costing a fortune to run with only the few Airbnb guests to help pay its way, we have no alternative than to return it to residential as it was originally in the 1800s."
She added: "We realise that locals will be sad to see it change, but they are at liberty to come forward with an offer to purchase it if they are keen."
