"Stayed for one night at the Bear Hotel, Crickhowell, including breakfast. I was given a room off the main building in a seperate 'motel ' style accomodation block. The room was a good size and comfortable, but there are a few points to make. For example, points off for the patchy painting job in the main room which make it look tired and the front door that does not quite fit the frame which allows cold air and noise to filter though. Another fustrating point is that there were no plug sockets or switches next to the bed, meaning that if you have a phone to charge, it will have to be done on the other side of the room and if you want to turn the lights off whilst in bed, you have to get out and turn them off at the front door and make your way back to bed in the dark. Another minor point to consider is the very loud extractor fan which faces the accomodation block from the main building kitchen, although this got turned off at about 22:00 which I was most thankful for! Points gained for the extremely comfortable bed with a matress that felt like it could have been brand new and the vast selection of hot drink sachets that surpass any hotel I 've stayed in. The room and bathroom were exceptionally clean and the shower worked well with good pressure and very hot water which was very welcome. In the morning, the breakfast selection was small but tasty. The server was friendly and polite and took my order quickly. Everything seemed well cooked and I was set for the day. A few things to consider, and I would stay again if it were for just one night but I would look elsewhere for any longer than that."

"It had been a wet day for canal boating, and we wanted an easy evening. There was the pub, just downhill from our mooring. We booked, as advised by another publican earlier on our trip; felt foolish as the place was almost empty. But we were welcomed in, seated and served with friendly courtesy. And there was an ever-changing cluster of locals nattering nearby, happy to exchange the odd comment with us. The food was good, the choice of beers likewise. We forgot we had been cold and wet and decided it was a good day."

"We have had two Sunday lunches here recently whilst our kitchen was being fitted. The meat is always sooooo tender and good portions. The service is very good even though they are always busy. Our daughter rated their Nut Roast as being one of the best she’s ever had in a restaurant. Very lucky to have this on our doorstep. Oh, and dogs are very welcome everywhere."

"Came to this place as the Google reviews was great, but don't be fooled, the fish I received was very soggy and oily and so was my girlfriends sausage and batter! You would expect it to have some sort of crunch! The chips was okish and they use cheap tartar sauce packets. Overall we won't be coming back. My suggestion is go to the CodFather in Abergavenny, much better local fish bar :"

"Food and Drinks: Our expectations for The Vine Tree were quite high, but we ended up feeling a little disappointed. On the positive side, the menu offers a more interesting selection than most places in the area. The restaurant staff were attentive and skilled, which was fantastic. However, the quality of the food didn’t quite meet our expectations. It seems like the chef may have overdone it with the salt, as all our savory dishes were heavily seasoned; otherwise, the flavors were excellent. Two of us ordered dishes with king prawns, but they turned out tough and rubbery, which was disappointing. On the bright side, the duck was delicious and perfectly cooked. The steak was good but not exceptional; with so many venues serving steak, it’s hard to truly stand out. Overall, we found it difficult to add The Vine Tree to our “must eat here again” list."
