“It has been owned by the Brady family since 1947, and was originally an old thatched building, but was demolished and redeveloped.

“It is currently operated by Laurence Brady who is approaching having it for 40 years and is retiring so he has decided to sell it on.”

Mr Woods says it is very popular for all sorts of local activities.

“It is the closest licensed premises to Laragh GAA club. It’s also located close to the local community centre and is a meeting place for sporting groups and community organisations such as the golf society, gun club, etc. It is also very central to the community with Christmas parties, funerals, etc.”

The establishment has also developed over time to cater to all of the community’s needs.

“In 2000 they opened up the post office making it even more of a local focal point. It also opened as a restaurant during COVID-19 and is very popular for evening meals and Sunday lunch. It is a well-respected, well-run family business.”

The property is in good condition and is ready for use with few alterations needed.

“The property is excellently presented with a modern open plan feel to it, with a good bar lounge and a modern kitchen. Outside the site extends to almost one acre with extensive parking areas to the sides. To the rear of the property a well-presented beer garden and patio area. It’s ready for ongoing business.”
