Description
Kilvert Country Hotel is a symmetrical, two-storey building with an attic, featuring a five-window front made of coursed rubble. It has distinctive rubble chimney stacks at the front corners, which are connected to the gable ends by later buttresses. The steep slate roof has boxed eaves and three Victorian pitched roof dormers, complete with pendants, finials, and casement windows. Above the 12-pane sash windows, there are rubble voussoirs. The central entrance has a bracketed pedimented doorcase with a decoratively carved entablature and a five-panel door. The right-hand gable end has two windows with 12-pane sashes on the first floor. To the left, there is an extension that includes a modern conversion of a former doctor's surgery, featuring swept roof dormers. The building is set back down a cobbled lane that used to lead to stables. Behind the main front, there is a restaurant range that has a hipped roof at the left end and brick voussoirs over 12-pane sashes and French windows. A modern kitchen cross range is located at the rear, along with modern alterations to the back of the main range, which includes another rubble chimney stack.
Inside, the hotel retains an altered dog-leg staircase with a closed string, a moulded handrail, and turned balusters. The walls are studded, and there are exposed beams and joists, as well as open roof trusses with chamfered purlins. The restaurant features panelled shutters, and there are angle fireplaces that have been blocked up in the bar area.
