D & J Moore, Porth Rhondda
" Had a lovely break, enjoyed all aspects – scenery,
service & food. Excellent." |
Ian Sinclair, Chelmsford, Essex
"I felt compelled to comment on our stay with you last
Sunday.
The hotel was everything I had hoped for and more. From arriving
after dark in the afternoon and being able to enjoy a very good
pint of real ale in your comfortable bar, followed by a delicious
evening meal, an extremely comfortable bed and an excellent
breakfast the whole experience was a delight. All the staff
we dealt with were charming and attentive.Sorry to miss you
personally but if we come back to the area we certainly won't
stay anywhere other than the Hand." |

Peter & Shirley Howe, Whitchurch,
Shropshire
"We stayed with you on Saturday
night and just wish to say how very much our friends and us
enjoyed it In the afternoon we sat in the bar playing Trivial
Pursuit - and drinking - and it was all very relaxing. Your
attention to detail is most impressive and it's as if you've
stayed in the very best of hotels and picked out the things
that really make a place special. I love candlelight so personally
I was in Seventh Heaven!! Gorgeous food both at dinner and breakfast.
All beautifully done." |
