THE FELIN FACH GRIFFIN - REVIEW
Let's face it, most pubs can't cut it when it comes to matching character, seriously decent tuck, good drink and a cosy room. Not so The Felin Fach Griffin. Just down the road from the breathtaking Brecon Beacons, this 7 bedroom chintz-free inn gives a warm homely welcome. Upstairs you'll find 4-poster beds; downstairs bright cushions, squashy leather sofas, timber beams and thick stone walls. There's refreshing Welsh ale, and instead of a TV you can stare through the crackling fire into the adjoining restaurant. The food's fantastic and there are plenty of nooks to hide away and dine.
And what of personality? This is the love child of brothers Charles and Edmund Inkin. They've marked their turf throughout - from quirky farmyard pictures and an Aga in the breakfast room to antique wood carvings. Their company "Eat, Drink and Sleep" says it all. When done so well without pretension, it's no wonder they win all the awards. |
