Penmaenuchaf Hotel

A last minute two night trip to celebrate our wedding anniversary having stayed at the grove in Narberth, last summer. The brilliant bits - loved the cuppa when we landed - absolutely beautiful bedroom - stunning food - both the tasting menu and the a la carte - lovely, friendly staff - nice relaxed vibe It would be even better if - the restaurant and bedroom were a little cooler as it was uncomfortably warm - there was better lighting in the bedroom as it was very dim

We spent one night in this great hotel to celebrate my husband's birthday. It was our first visit which we were really looking forward to. We decided we would arrive early and have a light lunch in the lounge. I suppose I have to say that this was our only disappointment. We had soup and a sandwich. The soup was delicious but lukewarm and we had to send it back. The staff were very apologetic about it and friendly throughout. The sandwiches though were very plain and unsophisticated, two slices of standard bread, simply cut in half. One would have expected better from a kitchen who could make absolutely delicious sourdough rolls to eat with the soup. The hotel is in the throes of being refurbished and when the builders noise became obtrusive we were guided to a different lounge and offered complimentary coffee. This was done in a very friendly manner. When our room was ready we were taken to it and found that we had been upgraded . This was a lovely surprise. Our room (Meirionydd)had a little patio was large and very well appointed. The evening meal was really excellent, unusual dishes very well prepared, the service was attentive and friendly without any over familiarity. It was a pleasure to sit down at breakfast the next morning and to be offered really fresh fruit salad, as well as the traditional cooked fare which was very well cooked. So, apart from the atrocious weather, we had a very good time . The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable in their own sphere and we look forward to returning when the refurbishments are truly finished. The main lounge is getting a facelift and I look forward to that as at the moment it is rather dark with poor lighting. I understand it will be ready by April for the beginning of the tourist season. I look forward to it.

We live locally and this place was recommended so we thought we would give it a go. It needed to be perfect as it was a special birthday meal. It didnt disappoint. We made our menu choices infront of a roaring fire whilst a storm raged outside. The food was served in a warm cosy conservatory and every course was a delight. The staff were informative and attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for making this day a lovely memory

Absolutely first class, a truly wonderful place to stay. Service is as close to perfect as possible and hotel is a truly incredible place to stay. A credit to the management team and staff. This and the Grove in Narberth both set the tone for Welsh luxury hospitality.

Just back from a fabulous 1 night stay. This is a wonderful hotel with amazing staff and superb food. We were made so welcome by Louise and had an upgraded room which was too nice to leave. Please forgive me for not remembering everyone’s names but this a gem. Our evening meal was faultless and the dinner service by all was perfect. Breakfast was spot on and a delight. We shall be back. Go. You will be in for a treat.

Our North Wales Golf trip was based from this lovely hotel. It’s a great example of a late Victorian hunting lodge / country house. Lovely grounds and views. The welcome is the warmest, all the staff were wonderful and attentive. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. Food was on another level. Breakfast options are great. Fine dining and general dining were 5* I felt very special for 3days, and big thank you to all at Penmaenuchaf. Will come again soon with my wife and the pups !
