a really beautiful location. great food and wines and attentive service with a smile. we did the 5 mile circular walk which needed boots but the views were worth it and it created the space for the next meal.

visited for sunday lunch in jan 1pm restaurant very cold, food on floor as we sat for pre lunch drinks, starters both luke warm, we complained,main course good desserts ok ,toilets not clean ,overall veiw not good for so called michelin starred restaurant, would not return for michelin star dinning try purnells in birmingham

The main reason for staying in the Crown is its Michelin starred food which was superb. Our meal was enhanced even further by wines for each course being chosen by the sommelier. Service was generally very good although slightly marred when the coffee ordered did not arrive and having to correct the bill when they forgot to charge for the wine for two of our courses. The room we stayed in looked a little tired with scuffs and marks on paintwork and bedcover. This didn't spoil our visit - just didn't do justice to such superb food.

We booked to stay here after reading the excellent review in the Weekend Telegraph recently and it did not disappoint. It is off the beaten track but easy to find using the website directions. Warm welcome and nice touch to deliver warm Welsh cakes to our room just after arrival. Delicious canapes served with our aperitifs and we treated ourselves to the 6-course tasting menu with accompanying wines. The food was really outstanding and we loved every course. Service was friendly and attentive. Our only comment would be that, as mentioned in a previous review, the first course is the amuse-bouche which everyone on the a la carte is served too. Also, the two last courses are both desserts and cheese was only offered at a supplement. My husband is not a great dessert fan and both of us felt that a small course of a local Welsh cheese instead of one of the desserts would have improved the tasting menu. Apart from that, with superb petits fours with our coffee, it was an excellent meal.

Our room, Bryn, was extremely comfortable (at the front of the house) and we had no complaints at all about the breakfast, which was good.

We would certainly recommend this restaurant with rooms to our foody friends.
