PAUL Hoare, the owner of the historic NatWest Bank building in Cardigan, has sold the property to a couple from Newport. The new owners plan to transform the building into a hotel and are also considering an extension to the existing structure, he said.
Paul said he’ll be relocating to Spain soon, where he plans to purchase a property for personal residence and another shop to continue his work. Additionally, Paul will be selling a collection of his paintings at exhibitions and auctions in New York later this year.
Paul, a professional artist for the past 10 years, has been passionate about art from a young age. A keen former art student at Cardigan’s Ysgol Bro Preseli, he initially pursued a career as a gardener before dedicating himself fully to his art.
