Listed on its own site as a restaurant with bar and rooms, this Grade 2 Georgian building is just in England, though as soon as you cross the threshold you are in Wales. Whilst impressive to look at from the outside, dressed in huge limestone blocks, it disappoints a little internally. It’s a little faded and is a barn of a place, needing a snug or a few separate areas to break the place up. It may also at some times be considered rather noisy with its television and various gaming machines. The floor area is “L” shaped, running into the pool room, with a rustic fireplace and woodburner at one end. To the side is a small darts room, which would fit into the average bathroom. The separate room used for dining is dominated by a huge open fireplace. And Llanymynech? It's Welsh for "church of the monks". Llanymynech is on a disused section of the Mongomery Canal. A grant has been obtained to reopen it and a marina is planned. New independent owners moved in on 14/5/24, just five days before it was surveyed. They intend to fully refurbish the place and start doing food and increase the beer range. All details included herein are subject to change as work is undertaken. The website address will also change.
