Capel Bethlehem Cemaes
In 2018 Cemaes CIC acquired the Capel Bethlehem buildings and lands overlooking Cemaes Bay beach and harbour, with the aim of redeveloping the property as a sustainable community asset.
The property now benefits from planning consent for the change of use of the existing buildings and redevelopment of the whole 0.25 acre site.
The proposals are for the 1856 chapel building to be converted to provide two storeys of restaurant space and a ground floor bar/service area. The ground floor of the Ministers house will be remodelled to accommodate a commercial kitchen and the 1970s rear extension will be demolished and reconstructed to house a dry goods store, cold room, freezer room, staff welfare and cleaning store.
A unique, high-end one bedroom self-catering accommodation unit will be created in the former vestry and the first floor of the Ministers house which Cemaes CIC will operate and manage.
The remainder of the site is to include a new fully accessible two storey seafront building with a cinema and refreshment bar on the first floor. The ground floor offers over 100 sqm of open plan space that is suitable for a variety of commercial and community uses.
There will also be an adjoining two story retail unit.
The company now intends to progress the project to the next stage, and to realise their ambitious plans to develop what will be a unique, flagship destination in one of Angleseys most picturesque locations.
As part of this next stage, Cemaes CIC is looking to engage with potential occupiers of the redeveloped site, and give businesses that have an interest in being part of this transformational and exciting project, the opportunity to register their interest, and potentially commence discussions over taking a commercial lease at the property.
Timeline
Cemaes CIC has RIBA Stage 4 detailed drawings and intends engaging a Principal Building Contractor to commence construction with a one-year build period subject to securing the full funding package required.
The location
Cemaes is a popular tourist resort and fishing village located along the Northern coast of the Isle of Anglesey. It is approximately 16 miles to the east of the port town of Holyhead and approximately 12.5 miles to the east of Junction 3 of the A55 expressway, that links the region with the mainland, the North West of England and the North Wales coast. North Wales is one of the UKs top holiday destinations and in 2021 was voted most popular UK destination in an influential industry survey, and reported record breaking visitor numbers. The Isle of Anglesey forms a major part of the North Wales tourism offering, and has some of the regions best beaches and coastal walks and popular attractions such as South Stack and Ynys Llanddwyn.
Cemaes is one of Angleseys most charming villages, and is popular with tourists
and locals, with an estimated 30,000 visitors coming to the village in 2021 to enjoy its picturesque harbour, promenade and sandy beach. The village is also a popular base for exploring the north of Anglesey, having one of the most scenic sections of the Anglesey Coastal Path and having a broad supply of holiday accommodation, including cottages and holiday parks.
The coastline around the village is part of the Anglesey Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the centre of the village, including where Capel Bethlehem is located, is a Conservation Area. Cemaes is also designated as part of the Isle of Anglesey County Councils North Anglesey Economic Regeneration Plan, in which the Council states that encouraging investment and supporting regeneration projects in Cemaes harbour is a top priority. The Capel Bethlehem project is actually identified in the Plan, with the Councils support for the project formally recognised.
Capel Bethlehem site location
The site extends from Bridge Street, one of the main routes into the village, and down towards the public car park that serves the beach and harbour.
The opportunity
Cemaes CIC now presents to the open market the opportunity for interested businesses and organisations to register their interest in taking a commercial lease on space at the proposed development. Cemaes CIC are taking a flexible and market led approach and are inviting interested parties to respond with their proposals for the space, and for this to then form the starting point of discussions over leases being agreed to commence when the building is complete.
There are three key opportunities:
Restaurant
Retail unit
Flexible seafront complex space
It is thought that these three aspects of the development would suit three individual tenants, however, they are open to offers from parties that might want to include more than one lease in their proposal, or even smaller businesses that might only want part of one of the three spaces, and could then share with other complimentary businesses or groups.
The restaurant
This will form part of the former chapel building and has been designed to accommodate restaurant seating and bar area on the ground floor of the main chapel space, with a commercial kitchen alongside this and access to a new extension at the back of the building, that will include a dry goods store, cold room, freezer room, staff welfare and cleaning store.
On the first floor of the main chapel space, there will be provision for further seating, and outside there will be a raised deck for further seating with views out over the beach and harbour.
There will be scope for around 100 covers. The commercial kitchen has been professionally designed but can be reconfigured to meet the tenants needs.
The restaurant space will be provided as a shell, allowing the incoming tenants to fit it out to their specification and theme.
The floor areas will be as follows: Ground floor seating area 74 sqm First floor seating area 63 sqm Kitchen 29 sqm Kitchen store and staff welfare 32 sqm
Cemaes Community Interest Company Company registration number 11256937
There will be a new increased size 3 phase metered power supply to the restaurant, suitably sized to accommodate the cooking, lighting, power, heating/cooling, hot water services and ventilation requirements for the facility. It will be independently metered from the other areas of the development.
The restaurant will be provided with underfloor heating powered by air source heat pumps located externally within the kitchen compound. The hot water will also be provided by air source heat pumps located externally. There will be a commercial kitchen supply and extract ventilation system mounted externally out of sight from the Cemaes Bay views.
The existing metered mains water supply will be upgraded to meet the additional demand imposed by the kitchen washing up facility. A 50mm MDPE water main is proposed to deliver 1.5l/s.
Customer toilets will be available at the adjoining communal area where there will be a lift down to the beach. Cemaes CIC see an operator taking a lease on the restaurant for a term of years to be agreed and at a market rent to be agreed. The headline terms of any lease are proposed to be along the following lines:
Rent Negotiable Length Negotiable Repairs Tenant responsible for handing the space back in the condition it is at the start of the lease Fit out Tenant responsible for fitting out the restaurant The landlord will fit out the commercial kitchen Outgoings All outgoings will be the responsibility of the tenant Service Charge There will be a service charge to cover communal areas
Cemaes Community Interest Company Company registration number 11256937
Seafront complex
This will be a fully accessible new build and modern flexible space over two floors. The ground floor will front directly onto the beach carpark and has a glazed frontage for the entire front elevation. It will be accessible both from the car park and also from the lift area and communal stairwell to the side, with the lift and stairs taking visitors from the beach up towards the restaurant level and roof terrace.
The ground floor can be offered as one large space or subdivided into two smaller spaces. The benefit to any interested party in registering their interest now, before the construction stage, is that there may be scope to tailor the space to the tenants requirements.
The overall floor areas for the smaller spaces are: Ground floor space 1 49.29 sqm Ground floor space 2 49.30 sqm
Each space will include storage/office space and staff toilet and welfare room.

This area would suit a variety of potential uses, and offer a unique opportunity to occupy a multi-purpose landmark building with one of the most impressive and scenic frontages of any building on Anglesey. The CCIC will work with both commercial enterprises and community organisations who wish to occupy the space and will consider innovative proposals that combine both community and commercial uses in this flexible floor plan.
Cemaes CIC will operate an 86-seat inclusive cinema and lecture space with an adjoining refreshment bar offering 20 covers and meeting break out space on the first floor. This area also provides public toilets.
The retail unit
This will be a new build and modern shop unit that will front directly on to the beach car park. Accommodation will be over two floors and the shop will have prominent glazed frontage looking out over the beach and harbour.
The floor areas will be as follows: Ground floor 18.10 sqm First floor 18.89 sqm
There will be a toilet and staff room included within this floor space on the ground floor and stairs to the first floor.

Communal spaces
Interested parties should be aware that under the proposals, the property will benefit from communal areas that will enhance the accessibility of the beach car park for visitors and provide new landscaped public open space that will make the most of the sites stunning outlook towards the beach and harbour.
There will be a lift and stairs that will allow visitors to access the beach car park from Bridge Street. There will also be a roof terrace on the same level as Bridge Street that could accommodate a variety of community activities such as yoga, art classes, photography classes and astronomy.
There will also be a new accessible car park that will also incorporate bicycle racks and a coach pull-in. This will be the only such space for a coach to stop in the centre of the village and so will draw footfall to the building. In fact, all of the communal space will increase footfall to and through the multi-purpose building and will ensure that the building becomes a new focal point for visitors and the local community in the village.
