Castle Hotel
A large country town hotel set up a steep drive, it also has steps which makes it unsuitable for the disabled. There are two bars. The snug, which is small and has a small bar space, is cosy with its original wood panelling, but getting served there can be difficult at busy times. There are also two larger rooms - joined by the same bar. At the rear there is a dart board (and other games) and it is this area which doubles up as the real ale bar during the two beer festival weeks held in the town. Seating is round wooden tables and chairs plus some stools. A real fire keeps the whole room warm in winter. The decor is country town hotel style and is thus subdued but strong. The real ales on at the time were: Hobsons Best (a regular) Bass and Tomos Watkin OSB. Food is served here lunch and evening, times vary so check first. Prices are a little steep for food, but quality is good. Outside to the rear - up some very steep steps - is a huge beer garden with great views over the town and the surrounding countryside. No music here, a quiet pub. There is accommodation here in the price range of ?60-75 for a double en-suite.
