The hotel was built in the 17th Century and was originally called the Wynnstay Arms. There is a staircase from the same era which dominates the centre of the inn. There is a public bar on the right as entering and on the opposite side there is a cosy lounge bar. Reassuringly old fashioned with various nooks and crannies and wooden beams throughout. The Birches restaurant is situated in a large room via the hallway. A 3rd ale is sometimes seen on the bar at busier times.

Listed status: II
17th.century former coaching inn refitted in the 1960s and featuring full-height panelling (reputedly from a ship). The lounge bar and adjoining room are unchanged since, the former having a curved wood counter and a bar-back from the refit. Other features of note are the unusual 17th.century staircase to the rooms upstairs, a curved window in the partition wall to the hallway and the narrow door to the servery for staff. To the left, the very small dining room also has a heavily carved fireplace - the hatch to the bar is no longer in use. The restaurant has half-timbered walls and a small 1970s bar. The two-part public bar accessed from Bridge Street was refurbished in 2007.
