A small multi-roomed village pub tucked away in the river Clwyedog valley in the Hiraethog hills four miles west of Ruthin (in Welsh it might have read - Asmallmultiroomedvillagepubtuckedawayintheriverclwyedogvalleyinthehiraethoghillsfourmileswestofrhuthun :)) A Welsh Heritage pub. The tiled gents from WW2 bombed houses is a "must see". Real Ales from Marstons Brewery plus guest ales. Special food nights like Thursday Curry and Pint, and Friday Fish and Chips. I can vouch for the homemade curry made by the Indian Management (arrive early or booking recommended).
Opening hours: 1700-2300 (Mon-Fri); 1700-midnight (Sat); 12-4 (Sun)
