The pub contains many artefacts from the Woodhouse family including The Badger glass - the largest hand-blown glass in the world. The building is split into sections over three floors: the Bar and the Pantry, the grand central staircase, a first-floor dining room with its open kitchen, and a beautiful outside terrace.
