Just occasionally, one stumbles across a venue that routinely exceeds expectations in all respects in terms of food, drink, attitude, service and hospitality. Hammet House in Llechryd, Pembrokeshire, is one such outstanding establishment. We arrived on time on a Friday night and sat in the bar with a drink my wife had a difficult choice as there were just so many flavours of gin to choose from. We were provided with menus and an extensive wine list to make our selections from. The menu is regularly changed, so even returning customers like ourselves are treated to something different on every visit. We both decided to try the duck for starters and while my wife had the fish for her main, I w...
Food full of flavour, good portion size, excellent wines, friendly efficient staff, a beautiful period building tastefully decorated with a light, modern elegance, interesting artwork and sculptures, very different from those normally seen in a restaurant. There are crisp linen tablecloths elegant silverware for the tables, gentle low background music, not stuffy mournful, we enjoyed listening to Leonard Cohen. We have dined in many fabulous hotels restaurants including the ‘Hand Picked’ and ‘Macdonalds’ groups. When we see ‘Fine dining’ we have come to expect very small portions but not so at Hammet House. I meant to order vegetables with my fillet steak meal but was glad I forgot – there w...
If you are looking to stay at a hotel that has charm and character coupled with friendly staff and owners then look no further. We have just returned from two nights and it has left a lasting memory, it's not often you get a hug and a goodbye from the owners when checking out! Chris, Nikki and Harriott make this place very special and have created a truly amazing environment where staff and owners work in partnership together it is wonderful to be a part of this experience. The wine list was fantastic and very refreshing to see good bottles of wine with a marginal mark up unlike some other hotel chains. If you want to get away from the soulless chain hotels and experience something a little...
Despite being one of the wettest weekends in wales. We stumbled across this lovely family run hotel. We had dinner in the library bar next to the log fire. We had a delicious little red wine and fine food. We ended up chatting to other guests and the owners,which made the evening a memorable night. We stayed in room 8, which was outstanding. Great views overlooking the grounds. The best thing is the bed,my wife and I had the best night sleep ever. When we dragged ourselves out of bed for breakfast this was also outstanding. I fully recommend this little bit of paradise.

I have been waiting for 20 years for Castle Malgwyn (not 'ammet 'ouse, please) to realise its potential. We have endured many ups and downs. At last, we had a dinner which delivered in the way this place deserves. The abiding memory is precision; portions, flavours and presentation. It is not cheap, but that is what special occasions are about. The consistency of the delivery made the difference, you pay for what you get. Bravo.
Fab meal and service excellent will do anything to help. It was my birthday and even surprised me with a happy birthday board and brownies. Will definitely go again.
Amazing food, beautiful surroundings, fantastic staff. It was such a comfortable, relaxed and friendly environment and the food was just soooo good.
Stopped to charge electric car. Which they offer free. I opted for a pot of tea on the lawn with a light lunch. Excellent. Call again? Definitely.
