just a mile to the West of the village of Rhoose, on the B4265 - some 10 miles west of the capital city of Wales - Cardiff - in the U.K.
The inn has a history that spans some 700 years, it first opened it's doors for trade in 1380
- over a 110 years before Christopher Columbus first crossed the Atlantic Ocean and discovered America!
It has traded almost continuously since then and is now world famous as a pub, renowned for it's range of real ales, and for it's high quality food.
