The Unicorn Tavern is a medium sized building, about the size of two houses, a white structure with visible black painted beams. It's in good repair with a recently thatched roof and fresh paint, covered in window boxes full of brightly coloured flowers. An archway leads through the centre of the facia of the building to a stable block and a cobbled courtyard.
Pushing through the double doors the interior is nice and cosy. A large bar area was scattered with wine and spirits bottles and a large hearth dominated the room.
