Iconic hotel secured by unknown buyer
Auctioneers behind an agreement to sell the Castle Mona are confident its future owners will put the site to good use.
The historic 98-bedroom hotel and adjoining leisure facilities were secured by an unknown buyer, understood to be a local developer, yesterday.
It ends more than a decade of uncertainty over the Castle Mona's future, after its sudden closure in 2006.
Current owner the Sefton Group says it won't comment until the deal has been completed.
Simon Rigall from agent Lambert Smith Hampton says he's keen to see what becomes of the iconic property:
