Description

Rhymney House Hotel is a large detached house built of rendered stone, featuring a hipped Welsh slate roof with three hipped roof dormers and overhanging eaves. The building has two storeys and an attic, originally with a three-window range of 12-pane sash windows, which have now been replaced. On the ground floor, there were formerly two tripartite sash windows, also replaced, located on either side of a projecting flat-roofed central porch. The side of the building has a two-window range.

The interior has been completely refurbished to create a Tudor-style inn. It is reputed to retain a cast iron roof structure similar to that of the adjacent farmhouse. Originally, the ground floor included drawing, dining, and breakfast rooms, a kitchen, a school room, and offices, while the first floor comprised four large bedrooms and a bathroom.
