Four Waterfalls Walk & Nice place To Stay

Room was nice, the pub itself had a lively vibrant feel to it with the staff being fantastic and the locals very friendly. The food in the pub was good, no breakfast though but that wasn't a problem for us and tbf at the price for the room it wasn't even expected, although a £5 Greggs card was issued which I wasn't expecting so that was nice! Used it to subsidise a coffee n cake while we planned our day. I would happily recommend a stay given the price and the friendliness of the staff....hence the review!

Had the Deluxe double room. Initially there was a problem with the booking but the manager or owner who was there was kind enough to fix it and still give us the room we had booked. Nice location, spacious room, you won't be disappointed.

Perfect in every way

This property is exceptional because of its excellent modernistic and super clean rooms using natural materials, although the en suite in Room 7 was really too small, its excellent food ordered off a wide ranging menu and perfectly served but especially because of its super-professional enthusiastic, well trained and young staff members working well as a team. There is plenty of on street parking adjacent to the property and a Greggs voucher covers breakfast.

Banging Bistro

The Cardiff Arms Bistro was fantastic. Darren booked me in and showed me to my room. It was clean spacious and very modern. Went downstairs for something to eat, had the steak which was very reasonably priced, paid compliments to the chef. Slept like a baby on a very comfortable bed. The only thing i could moan about was that didn't get my greggs voucher, but saying that if my stay is as good as that every time, I will let them off. Well done Darren and staff, keep up the good work.

NO Breakfast

Lets start with the positives , Really good shower , excellent TV with Netflix . Hard work to find somebody to check in , never saw a member of staff after that . the pub is a typical high street pub on a Saturday , so not appealing to eat , but they closed the kitchen at 7.30 so not an issue . My biggest gripe however was NO breakfast , not told on arrival , happened to read it on a piece of paper in the room , not what you expect from a room that cost £100+ . oh and I did not get offered the voucher ( see photo ) . , "walk to Greggs my arse" wont be booking again
