For tourists this is in an ideal location for visiting Abergavenny, Blaenavon and most of the industrial heritage of Wales and the South West. If you know this area it has everything from historic interest to outward bound activities, scenery and it's oly 40 minutes from Cardiff if you need some serious retail therapy, (also the smaller Festival Park Outlet Village just 15 minutes away). Friendly landlord and landlady who will help with everything from a cot to booking tickets for the Theatre in Abergavenny, I can't recommend it highly enough. Free Car Parking, good links to trains and roads about an hour from Cardiff Wales Airport. Ideal place to stay during the food festival as it's walkable, but not in the expensive zone.

We like dogs so no problem for us there. We started off with a tapa, pork belly with black pudding and poched apple. Absolutely delicious but way too much, even for a full starter. The apples were sweet, as was the pork, with a crunchy skin. For mains we ordered the pie of the day, but they didn't have them. So we settled for the salmon with seaweed with blinis. Good choice! Never had such tasty salmon. Only the seaweed salad was bland. I would have served it with wacame or something. They gave us the tapa for free bc we couldnt have pie. All in all a great experience, socialising with the locals and great food.

The Skirrid Mountain Inn (otherwise known as the Skirrid Inn) lies between Abergavenny and…read moreHereford, at the entrance to the valley in which lies Llanthony Priory. One of the claimants to the title of Britian's oldest pub, a court is recorded as being held at the Millbrook Inn on the site in 1110, when two brothers were tried for theft and sheep stealing (one was hanged for his crime). The Priory was founded in 1108 and it is possible the pub was built to provide for pilgrims and other visitors. Manorial Courts were held here until 1485, with local courts thereafter. Hangings took place, so tradition has it, within the pub itself some 180 over the years. More of the pub's history can be found on the website. That all said, the exact age of the present structure is more debateable; most of the visible features are 17th century, although the main structure may be older. The pub today is happily unpretentious and has a rustic main room with bare stone walls, a huge stone fireplace and bar. There's a further small, cosy bar and two larger rooms, used for functions and at busy times. It serves a clutch of real ales, as well as food at lunchtimes and in the evenings. The food menu features traditional pub grub with decent portions, and there's an extensive choice of locally sourced meat, fish and vegetarian dishes, with starters and desserts, as well as sandwiches and filled baked potatoes at lunchtimes. Typical mains are around £6, up to £14 for steak. When we ate there were several families there with young children as well as couples of various ages, and in the summer it is popular with walkers and tourists.

Nice town pub with bar and separate small restaurant. Here for Sunday lunch. Reasonable price…read more Staff friendly but a bit dotty. More attention to detail for table setting required. Two glasses with lipstick marks and cutlery laid without polishing off fingerprints. Simple mistakes which are easily rectified if more attention paid to the little things! For example, Sunday lunch table has a bottle of vinegar but no salt or pepper; the table cloths have not been changed between guests, the plates have not been pre warmed therefore tends to go cold quickly. Food very nice and good value for money. For starters the duck pate was good and for main course the beef was excellent and a lot of it (not skimpy portions!). Loads of vegetables and really good homemade Yorkshire puddings. Sticky toffee pudding was still frozen when served though! With a little more attention I am sure this could be an excellent Inn. Will return soon to see if improvements have been made.
