A hotel built c.1850 in Gothic style whose public bar had a fine refit in the 1950s and is barely changed since. In common with a number of Welsh hotels, the public bar has its own entrance down the left hand side of the building and was separate from the rest of the pub until an archway was created, possibly in the 1950s. This bar has a splendid inter-war-style brick and timber counter that was actually installed in the 1950s and its glazed shutters are intact, though nowadays the lower ones are always raised. Also present are a large stone fireplace with a log fire, an old settle, two very old pieces of bench seating, three old tables and a framed brass relief of a domestic scene. At the rear of the bar is a small quarry-tiled pool room.
From the front stone porch you walk into a hallway/lounge bar with a bar counter added 30 or so years ago and a passage leading to an old reception hatch. Another lounge is on the right and beyond that are two dining rooms. The gents' has an unusual tiled urinal also dating from the 1950s.
