道爾福飯店(The Dolfor Inn)

Zwar ein gutes Stück entfernt vom nächsten, ernstzunehmenden Ort (Newtown), aber so etwas von angenehm. In walisischer Umgebung und mit dem Ambiente der beliebten, renovierten Inns - fantastisch. Modern bis rustikal eingerichtet. Sauber. Schön. Kneipe mit Restaurant in traditionellem Stil. Herrliches Frühstück. Und über allem steht die Freundlichkeit und Zuvorkommenheit des Personals. Haltet hier an! Für ein Bier, eine Mahlzeit oder eine Nacht.

What a fabulous pub. The food is outstanding in both quality and value for money. We were made to feel very welcome, the owners are lovely and made us feel like extended family. Booking essential as very popular and our experience confirms why. The children were welcomed and looked after, nothing too much trouble to make their night happy. We will be back, too good not to. Thank you

Had beautiful bike ride up to The Dolfor Inn and was warmly welcomed , we had really lovely room with massive bathroom . The evening meal had great choice on the menu and everything was cooked beautifully. We had great night sleep and tasty full Welsh breakfast ready for our ride home ! Cant recommend this place enough as nothing was to much trouble and look forward to our return visit .

We booked the Dolfor Inn for a visit to Newtown. We were asked a time of our arrival. When we got there we found the Inn closed and nobody answering the door. After 10 mins waiting in the rain and cold wind and a couple of phone calls, a lady came down to let us in. We were immediately asked what we wanted for dinner that night as we had booked to eat it and then asked what we wanted for breakfast the following morning. A bit strange but there you go! The room looked quite nice but could have done with a good clean. Cobwebs everywhere! Dinner that night was quite nice. We both ordered the Chris**as dinner. Shame about the bisto gravy though! There was a large group of ladies having a Chris**as party. We noticed there was no effort made by the owners to put crackers or anything Chris**assy on the tables for them. We went to sit in the bar after our meal and noticed how dead it was apart from a local and one of the owners. The owner said the locals didn’t drink there. Noticing quite a few houses around the pub and bearing in mind what a secluded area it was, we started to wonder why. The owner went on to tell us of his 23 years working in Spain and all the holidays he was having, and basically how the Dolfor Inn was just a means of topping up his pension pot. He clearly had no regard for any of the locals or anything to do with the Inn other than to make what he could out of it. In the morning we had some bad news and had to leave a day early. We’d booked for 2 nights. We had breakfast which was ok but quite greasy. The owner served it, loudly hacking up from the back of his throat. Not the nicest thing when you’re trying to eat! We told him we’d have to leave early and he said “Oh dear!” We packed and left. We messaged him a couple of days later to see if we could get our 1 night refund but received an email back saying the policy was to give 48 hours notice if you wanted to cancel. This seemed ridiculous as we had already spent the first night there. Such a shame this beautiful old fashioned pub has fallen into the hands of people who don’t care about it. A local Inn is meant to be about local people. You can clearly see that this is trying to be made into a fast money spinner which I doubt will be successful. Such a shame as the building and the locals deserve better than this.I just hope that the next owners keep the nostalgia of this beautiful little Inn and all the locals in mind. After all, it is the locals who keep a business going in the bleak months of winter!

In Wales who asks Welsh male voice choir members to stop singing in their pub? The hosts of the Dolfor Inn do! How embarrassing for the community, as the visiting choir had just performed to raise funds for LingenDavis cancer charity at the local village hall. After an hour or so of impromptu song, starting from 22:30(ish), the gentlemen were told to stop singing because there was a baby upstairs. What followed was an awkward drinking up of ale and an a**osphere of hostility from the hosts. The landlady sat with the wives and revealed how she was so tired with all the cooking and cleaning that she had to do, and how the two men had been in Spain for the past 22 years and this pub was to just top up their pensions! Too much personal information and not enough personal attention.

A lovely stop on the long journey back from Cardiganshire. Recently renovated, very clean and comfortable (great beds), friendly staff, great dinner and breakfast. Very quiet location. Will definitely stay again if I'm in the area.

Amazing meal and the lady serving was extremely welcoming . The food was of high quality and very reasonable for 3 people having starters mains and a desert for £75. Just out of Newtown and a lovely country pub . Would 100% recommend and return when we visit again . The lamb was incredible as was the creme brulee !
