Great location, comfortable and clean room
Pros:

Clean and comfortable accomodation. Clean bathroom, big double bed in the bedroom, great location with really good pub menu. Parking available. Staff was very kind and lovely. Easy check in and out.

Cons:

Low water pressure was annoying. The double bed was made from two single beds so we had a hole between the two beds.

Late arrival no breakfast
Pros:

Nice little rooms from the main pub. Tastefully decorated

Cons:

I arranged late, after 9pm. I had already enquired at what time they stop serving food as I knew it was touch and go, and was told 9pm. When o checked in, the lady told me that there was no breakfast, although I had booked B&B, as the kitchen was closed. That’s pretty disappointing to hear after a 4hr drive. Couldn’t the person o spoke to when enquiring about the restaurant have thought you ought to order your breakfast too?

Also, novelties bathroom, but hardly any water pressure in the shower.

Great find.
Pros:

Lovely rooms. Great pub. Had everything we needed and not too far from Cardiff. Will definitely be back.

Cons:

There was no breakfast on site. It could be pre-ordered but we didn't realise in time. But went into cardiff for some so wasn't a problem.
