Tafarn Penllan White Horse

Breakfast was quickly served

Coffee was instant

Location, food was amazing (we had Thai both evenings), very comfortable bed, very clean and the room had the space we wanted.

Minor issue: coffee (pods and sachets) for room had run out.

I was really impressed with how ian and the team made us feel at home. We had some lovely food.

The location is beautiful countryside. The prawn starter was good. Nice wood burner in the bar. Bed linen & towels were good. Nice lamps & bedside cabinets. Young staff very polite.

The White Horse is not a hotel or B n B. It's a very rough & ready pub with a few small rooms above the bar. Entrance through back door & straight up stairs. No carpet anywhere only linoleum/wood on the floor & stairs - noisy & cheap-looking. Like going back to the 1950s. The bedroom doors have springs so banging doors was a problem. Rowdy gang running up & down the stairs & banging doors at 3.30am. Landlord locked bar area & gone home so they had a free run. Bathroom gate/door very squeaky. Comfy mattress & nice bed linen & quilt but iron bed frame also very squeaky - the whole bed squeaks & sways when you sit on it & when you're in it. Ridiculous. When I mentioned it to the landlord he said 'Well it's a good thing you're not on a dirty weekend like most of the people who come here. Doesn't bother me I don't live here'. Regarding food & drink: Prawn starter was good but the Thai green curry was like a Chinese takeaway. No coconut but plenty of MSG. or it may have been cornflour. The breakfast was OK but rather mean portions. Be careful what you order at the bar - It's the first time I've ever had to pay £10 for a glass of white wine. Bad internet connection. Decorative standard very poor.
