Schull fish plant and restaurant a big catch for €1.75m

Schull Fish Plant and L'Escale Restaurant

Catch of the day in West Cork holiday hotspot Schull has to be this pierside property, likely now to be an upmarket development play, one with a 37-year history in fish processing, exports, and seasonal quayside dining for locals, sailors, and “blow-ins” like newly arrived second-home owner, actor Paul Mescal.

A sale of the long-established fish-processing plant and the L’Escale restaurant, with a plant of 800sq m on a site of 0.6 of an acre, right on Schull’s pier, has just surfaced via agents Mark Gosling and Cearbhall Behan, of Behan Irwin & Gosling/Downing Commercial, who guide the “quay” opportunity at €1.75m.
