Wedding occasion.
Room very small and no mirror by any sockets so couldn’t do make up or hair. Husband had to go and buy a mirror for me to use. We were attending my stepson wedding.

The main reason for our stay was to visit friends we have not seen for several years who were only a short walk away from the hotel. The hotel was excellent and can be highly recommended.

My room was above the cube and courtyard which I found noisy at 10.30 at night. I had the windows open for fresh air and to keep cool as the duvet was not a summer one and therefore my sleep was an interrupted sleep. The staff were very attentive and polite.

A charming hotel in the heart of Cowbridge
This is a charming hotel. We were on the third floor in an alcove room. The free breakfast is at their sister restaurant across the street, The Penny Farthing, which was cute and delicious. We were happy with just about everything except that our toilet was leaking across the floor and one of the showers I took was cold. We later found out that there was a problem with the hot water and that they fixed it. The location was great for shopping and walking along the main street in Cowbridge.

Loved the way an obviously old building has been well maintained and added to with an excellent tastefull modern glass annex.

Poor WiFi
Lovely hotel and the town’s high street was a great find. I stayed for business and the hotels Wi-Fi was awful, meaning I couldn’t do the work I’d planned to and the mobile reception in the town was equally bad. So while the location was lovely it was a very frustrating overnight stay!!
