Mr Nevin was shot dead in the kitchen while he was counting the St Patrick’s weekend takings.
In January 1998, Catherine Nevin - who died in 2018 aged 67 - sold the pub for €620,000 and Kerry man, Mr Kennedy subsequently purchased the pub for a price close to €2.5m in 2003.
Mr Kennedy has lodged the plans for the camping facility for the five acre site after the business showed strong profits in its most recently filed accounts.
Accounts for the 12 months to the end of January 2022 show that Jimblue recorded post tax profits of €370,451.
