Winnock Hotel

The Winnock Hotel dates back to the late 1700s as a former coaching inn. Having been lovingly resorted it now offers 73 bedrooms, lounges with open log fires and a characterful restaurant. All of the accommodation at the Winnock Hotel is different. From layout and size to décor and outlook, the majority of the rooms are unique which all adds to the charm of the Winnock Hotel. Many of the rooms have original features including fire places in some rooms and sash windows overlooking the village green. The hotel does not have a lift but ground floor rooms are available.
