Represent a truly unique opportunity to acquire an established business & home. Set in 10 acres, it is situated in an unrivalled position on the edge of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, in the highly sought after village of Burton. This English speaking part of Pembrokeshire is often referred to as “little England”. It commands breathtaking views over the Cleddau river, a beautiful deep water estuary once described by Admiral Lord Nelson as one of Europe's finest natural harbours. There are 22 miles of navigable waters, making it a boating paradise. The picturesque, busy & successful boatyard is an integral part of the local boating scene.

RUDDERS BOATYARD
“Rudders” was a Fish Farm until approximately 1983 when planning permission was obtained to become Rudders Boatyard & build Badger Cottage under a section 52 planning agreement.
Peter Rudder was the founder & sold the business some 10 years later to the Kroch’s who owned the business for some 7 years. Current owners Alastair & Liz Pollard purchased the business which then had a turnover of some £20k in November of 1999.
It was acquired primarily as a lifestyle home and combined business. Badger Cottage & the half kilometre Burton Cliff have spectacular elevated views over a very picturesque part of the Haven and beyond.
