Newbridge On Usk - Monmouthshire

From my first visit I was not so sure to come with the family because I was the only herbivore and hoped they had options. to my surprise they asked the cook to make some of their vegetarian dishes vegan that were delicious. they even advise on my next visit to inform in an advanced booking to clarify all vegans coming. what worked in the sequence, as she gave me a meal that is not on her menu, and much better than my first visit! love to revise, but really wish her vegan decisions, although the other restaurants of celtic manor have added new ones.

Heard a lot of good comments, so went for an overnight stay. Our allocated room, (The Happy Heron was tastefully decorated and warm. (Really appreciated after a rather wet and dismal journey! The bathroom is well appointed, but there was a layer of dust on the cross-piece on the rear of the bathroom door, and the bath seemed to have a powdery coating. Comfortable bed and quality bedding. Tea/coffee/ chocolate and a coffee machine, which unfortunately had no instructions on how to use. And so to dinner. My wife ordered the chicken breast and I the hake and chips. My wife's meal was really good but alas, my hake was small, chewy and covered in a batter that disintegrated as soon as you put a knife to it, sending shrapnel over the table. My wife's dessert of an individual apple pie was baked so hard, she had to have a knife as well as her spoon to break into it! My sticky toffee pudding was good. The staff, especially Alison, were really helpful, and Stuart quickly dealt with our departure in the morning. For the money, not really good value, having stayed at various hotels that offer better value.

Birthday celebration for wife and daughter. Wife’s Hake was tough and hard, my 28 day aged steak was quite tough and rubbery and the Hasselback potato was dry and difficult to eat. This establishment is meant to be top table stuff, my daughter said she’d have rather gone to the Harvester. To be clear, we had just two glasses of wine; one each for my wife and I, so the bulk of costs were on the food. In fairness we did not complain at the time as both of our children would have found it very uncomfortable and spoiled the evening having a replacement would have taken time and interfered with an important family milestone Why on earth is so difficult to get this relatively straight forward order wrong I expect the steak to be well sourced, where they got this cut of beef I’ve no idea. Not at all worth well over £200 for the four of us.

I had an amazing experience at this charming boutique hotel with only 6 rooms. The room was beautiful, the bathroom was cozy and the food at the restaurant was outstanding. The staff showed genuine care for the guests and the quality of the food. I stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed delicious breakfast and dinner each day. The continental breakfast was just perfect.

This boutique hotel is fantastic. The rooms, staff, and food are all excellent. A shoutout to Marius and Sarah for being so helpful during our stay. We hope to come back again in the future.
