The Gwaelod-y-Garth Inn

"Utter perfection! Felt cared for in a beautifully presented environment! My partner and I had a one night stay and we couldn't have asked for better. On arrival the young lady at the bar and the woman who checked us in were both exceptionally helpful. The room was lovely with the perfect size and temperature but for me it was the fabulous bathroom that sealed the deal! Everything was done with wonderful professionalism and the little touches (proper milk with the tea/coffee things) went a long way to cementing our view that the place was just wonderful. Dinner in their restaurant was lovely and reasonably priced, I'm only sorry that we were too tired to venture down to the pub for a drink because I would have very much liked to. Thank you once again to all the staff who helped us during our stay. This property is a lovely place and for the location (20 mins from central Cardiff) you couldn't ask for better!"

"Stunning country style pub at the base of the Garth, so is ideally situated for walk and food/drinks afterwards. The Sunday roast is very popular and needs to be booked a couple of weeks in advance. Managed to get a seat and a hot roast roll (beef, lamb or turkey available) served with roast potatoes, pug in blanket and stuffing with a small jug of gravy. Stunning!!! Awesome place with lovely views during the summer from a good sized beer garden out the front. Couldn't recommend enough!"

"Had a few pints up here since moving to Taffs Well, always enjoyed our visits but never stayed for food. Came up this past Sunday for a roast, can't believe what we've been missing. Fantastic food, great big helpings and lovely staff. Would highly recommend it based on the food alone, add to that the beautiful building, scenic location and lovely atmosphere and you've got a local pub to be cherished. We'll be back! Only sad that we couldn't add any photos to back up our review - once the food arrived we didn't come up for air until we paid the bill. No time for pictures!"

"Great pub indeed I would say exceptional. Good room with a comfortable bed. Very good food either in the restaurant or the bar. But what really takes things to the next level is the fact that this is a real pub with a welcome for everyone and the best range of well kept beers for miles. If you haven't visited, go."

"Visited here for lunch seated upstairs - lovely views and traditional decor. Ordered salmon with laverbread & cockle cream sauce - delicious. Cooked to perfection! Prices reasonable for the quality of food and atmosphere."
