Gliffaes Country House Hotel ****

Situated in a spectacular position above the River Usk, this charming country house hotel offers log fires, a sunny terrace, locally sourced food and plenty of walking routes.

Placed between the 2 market towns of Abergavenny and Brecon in the valley of the River Usk, this family-run establishment sits just south of the A40.

Set in the middle of the Brecon Beacon`s National Park, the hotel has a stunning location, with spectacular views of its own grounds and the River Usk.

With delicious cuisine and friendly, efficient service Gliffaes is the ideal base for exploring the magical Brecon Beacons National Park and walking through the countryside and surrounding hills.

You may wish for nothing more than a lazy lunch in the sunny conservatory with a bottle of wine, followed by a walk along the river and afternoon tea. Then, round off the day with a drink by the fire.

Being in the middle of a National Park and surrounded by farmland, the hotel has access to some particularly good meat; lamb and beef in particular. The hotel has earned an AA Rosette for its cooking for the 11th year in a row. Most of the dinner menu is changed daily, and offers a choice of 5 starters, mains and desserts, and there is always a vegetarian option. With prior notice, most diets will be catered for.
