'Best panorama in the country': Sherkin Island's Jolly Roger pub on the market for €475,000

The well-loved pub is set to change hands after more than a decade

The Jolly Roger, Sherkin Island

ANYONE who has ever gone on a weekend jolly to Sherkin Island will recognise the whitewashed walls and bright blue trimmings of this tremendously well-loved pub which has come up for sale with a guide price of €475,000.

Officially The Jolly Roger, but better known by the more clipped version of “The Jolly”, it’s as much a feature of a trip to Sherkin as a visit to the island’s two superb beaches at Cow Strand and Silver Strand.
