Fantastic Food

“During my stay, I indulged in the evening meals at The Waterloo, and I must say, the food is beautifully cooked from high-quality ingredients. Each dish was well-presented and incredibly tasty. I've eaten at many places that charge significantly more without coming close to this level of quality. The breakfast was equally delicious, making for an enjoyable start to my day.” view full review

Secure Parking

“I appreciated the secure parking facility during my visit. The car park is locked at night, which gave me peace of mind knowing my vehicle was safe. It made my experience that much better, allowing me to focus on enjoying my stay rather than worrying about my car.” view full review

Comfortable Rooms

I had a fantastic dining experience at this lovely place! The food was out of this world, and the atmosphere really took me back in time. However, the Yorkshire pudding with my beef dinner was a bit burnt, and the chicken dish could've used some stuffing. Despite these minor issues, I'm eager to return for another meal!

I had a lovely stay at the hotel while walking the Welsh Coast Path. The location was fantastic, right on the path with easy access. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the meals were hearty and delicious. However, the initial impression of the hotel's upkeep could be improved, and parking was a bit tricky to navigate. Overall, a great value for an enjoyable stay.
