The only thatched pub in the branch area, the building is deceptive in appearance. It has a long frontage but has relatively shallow depth. There is a central bar with comfortable seating and a doorway to the left leading into a modest lounge. To the right of the bar area is a separate room that can be used for dining or for functions. The ceilings are low with exposed wooden beams and three handpumps adorn the bar.
