Seasalt and Joules have opened within the former Co-op which has been developed as part of the Oyster Wharf scheme in Mumbles, one of Wales’ most famous seaside destinations. Overlooking Swansea Bay, the £5.5m mixed use seafront regeneration scheme by Nextcolour Developments has seen the rejuvenation of the historic Art Deco Tivoli building and adjoining shopping arcades. Leisure operators at the fully occupied scheme are Croeso Lounge, Prezzo, Le Bistrot Pierre and rooftop restaurant La Parrilla.

Cooke & Arkwright’s Retail & Leisure Agency acted for the landlord in securing pre-lets to Seasalt and Joules when the former Co-op premises were being converted into two retail units. Surveyor Ian Newbury said, “It’s a great location and Seasalt and Joules provide a real boost to the retail mix in Mumbles. The restaurants at Oyster Wharf also make a great contribution to the leisure scene and the whole development is attracting more visitors to the area.”

Cooke & Arkwright’s Property Management team are retained as managing agents for the Oyster Wharf scheme.

E J Hales advised Joules on the acquisition.

The Leekes Retail and Leisure Group have substantial property assets within the group and have engaged Andrew West to appeal against rating assessments on these properties since 2010. We have consistently been impressed by Andrew's knowledge of the property market and his negotiating skills have been exceptional. Given Andrew's outstanding performance, we would not hesitate to recommend Andrew to any business large or small seeking to appeal their rates liabilities.
