Good value lunch

Nice cosy pub with a real fire. Friendly service and good value pub grub cooked with pride. I can recommend the chicken breast in white wine sauce. Good atmosphere, home cooked food, lovely warm log fire. Would recommend. Excellent value Pool table and darts available.

Very welcoming and comfortable

A tremendously warm welcome from lovely staff made us feel instantly at home. Nothing was too much trouble and everything very clean. Breakfasts were good and particularly enjoyed the delicious cheese and onion pie in the evening. A very convenient location made it easy to get around and we certainly plan to return at the first opportunity.

Tasty!!

Nipped in for a quick drink the other day and ended up having lunch. Food was great, everything we had was ‘pub grub’ but elevated with presentation and tasted great. Definitely one of our favourite places to visit and the patisserie is sublime. Thank you.

Valentines meal in Cardiff

My partner and I booked for Valentines and his birthday. We have eaten here many times and have always found the food to be excellent. We were happy the venue had chosen to offer their main menu alongside some special menu items for Valentines rather than offering only a set Valentines menu like other venues, it gave more of a relaxed feel to the evening. The food, as always, was exceptionally good and the service, firendly and attentive.

Great village pub.

I’d heard very good things about the new management.The service was friendly, the food was absolutely brilliant. Good wholesome pub food. I had the steak pie which was lovely, with a lovely rich gravy. All plates cleared. We will definitely return, I think if this is the standard, the other pubs in the area should be worried. Thanks again. We will definitely return.

Lovely short break

We have just enjoyed one night including Dinner, bed and breakfast. Can't fault it in any way. A lovely welcome from staff, very comfortable room (enormous bed!), and the most delicious evening meal (I heartily recommend the grilled seabass. If I wasn't so polite I would have licked the plate it was so good!) . Ate far too much but still slept well. And all in the most beautiful location.

Good Views, Friendly Staff & Place

Stopped in one of their ground floor rooms, WiFi was good which was needed & the view from the room was lovely. Anthony & All the Staff were helpful and a made my stay more than comfortable. The Breakfast was (for me) spot on every morning and a great way to start the day with a smile from the Staff

Wonderful place!

This was the second time we had stayed here but the first time for our friends. We all had a great time the girls had a lovely afternoon clay pigeon shooting whilst we went off getting Land Rovers dirty. We all met up in the bar after our events and sat around the log burner as it had been a cold day. The bar area was really cosy and the bar had a good choice of real ales. The staff were really friendly and looked after us well.

A real treat!

Stayed in one of the cottages and was lovely. View over part of the bridge and river - very cosy and warm. Comfy beds and quality linen. We only stayed the one night and ate in the restaurant but the kitchen would have had everything we needed had we been self catering. Food was excellent. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. This is a famous, old and historic inn that we have visited nearly all our lives but have never stayed or eaten here - but we will be back

Great place to stay

Had a fantastic stay, owners and staff are very welcoming, food was good quality, rooms are very well finished and have everything you need. I would recommend stopping here to everyone planning a trip to the area. They also now have EV charging available. Thanks to all for a fantastic stay.

Fab local just round corner.

We had a really great night , food was lovely and service was excellent! Front of house service was great too! Had cheese pie and chicken skewer, really tasty food. Couple of pints in the sun finished a hectic week in a relaxed, friendly pub. We will be back - two frazzled (but now relaxed) head teachers!

Excellent 1 Night Stay

The room was neat and tidy, well decorated, had a very comfortable bed with a tasteful modern bathroom, which had a very good raindrop and handheld shower with nice fluffy towels. In the room there was complimentary water, tea and coffee. The coffee being excellent coffee bags but no complimentary biscuits which would have been a nice touch. We booked directly on a bed and breakfast basis. The breakfast was excellent I have to say with plenty of choice.
