Such a warm friendly welcome at this great find. Food, service and pub vibe was exceptional. Rooms was spacious and clean and well presented but do need updating, but as I understand it this pub changed hand 6 months ago and I would also prioritise the pub!!. This was a great pet friendly find in a lovely hidden village.

Great value short trip

A short-stay business trip, but what a treasure to find! Friendly, clean, tidy, with a good selection of beers and something on the menu to suit any taste. Everything laid out next day for an early (06:30) breakfast getaway.

Having visited some time before, this is situated by a stunning church and quite villiage and warranted another visit due to a family party nearby. Has been taken over recently and things are going in the right direction as was looking a little tired. Food is great, as are the staff and sence a a great villiage pub

Excellent :)

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at The Fox and Hounds. A little haven just up the road from the bustle of Cardiff where we had a brilliant night seeing the Stereophonics. Adam and all staff couldn’t have been more welcoming and attentive, very friendly locals and a brilliant taxi firm recommended who chauffeured us to and from the gig. An absolutely lovely little break away and we are looking forward to returning, concert or not.

Barry Island Break

Located in a picturesque countryside village, the pub is welcoming and staff/locals are friendly. No evening food service on the night of our stay so we had to venture to find food. Not ideal after a lengthy drive but nothing in the village. Rooms are basic and a bit tired but generally clean. The shower however is only suitable for persons under 6ft (room 6)due to the shower tray position. We had rowdy neighbours who continued until 2am despite requests to turn the volume down, unable to locate any staff to assist with matter which didn't help. Didn't stay for breakfast so cannot comment on that. A shame really because given its location.
