The current landlords of The Castle Inn in Newport are preparing to call time on their tenure at the High Street pub, with Simon and Louise set to leave later this month.
The pair will depart The Castle on Saturday (19th September), but the pub itself will continue under new landlords.
Simon and Louise will mark their final night at the popular Newport watering hole with an event getting underway from 20:00.
Live music from Bittersweet will feature during the evening, alongside drinks promotions including pints and a spirit and mixer for £3, doubles with a mixer for £4 and shots for £1.
Announcing their departure, Simon and Louise have said:
“Although it’s the end of an era for us, it’s definitely not the end of The Castle.
“We genuinely wish the new landlords every bit of luck and success and hope everyone gives them the same support, laughs and loyalty that you’ve shown us over the years.
“The Castle has always been more than just four walls and a bar – it’s the people who walk through the door that make it what it is.

The change of landlords comes after The Castle closed its kitchen indefinitely on ,27th July, citing family health commitments and ongoing cost of living pressures facing small businesses.
The venue was also handed a 1-star food hygiene rating following an inspection in June.
