Crown Inn in Shorwell set for revitalisation as former managers officially take the helm

Sale of the leasehold of the Crown Inn in Shorwell has been completed and now officially acquired by Liam White and his business partner Simon Cant.

The business partners are known for their involvement with The Castle Inn, Newport, as well as The Vine in St Helens and The New Inn, Shalfleet.

Liam said,

“Having both previously managed the Crown Inn at different times, it held a special place in our hearts. So, when the opportunity arose to take it on, myself and Simon jumped at the chance.

“It is a beautiful pub situated in a stunning little village and we plan on continuing from the hard work put into it by its previous owners and adding in our own style and brand that we carry across our other venues.”

Nick Earee, Divisional Director of Fleurets, who handled the sale, added,

“The Crown Inn is a significant part of the local community and I’m very pleased that we have found Liam and Simon who will undoubtedly carry on making the pub the heart of the community.”
