The bar offers a good selection of drinks and draws a lively local crowd, especially on Friday and Saturday nights when it stays open until 2am. A function room is available for private parties and events, as seen in a past surprise party setup.

Guest bedrooms range from Single Rooms to Large Double Rooms, each with an en suite bathroom, Freeview TV with built-in DVD player, and tea and coffee making facilities.

Security measures include CCTV in common areas and outside the property, smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and key access to the hotel section separate from the pub.
