Nice large room, with large en-suite bathroom. Food at the restaurant was excellent, with excellent service, both for dinner and breakfast. The "packed" sandwiches were just fantastic (homemade bread and chutney)- came in handy since we were walking 15 miles to St Dogmaels! Bartender who greeted us when we arrived was very friendly- she signed us in and made us... More

Recently enjoyed a two night special offer break at the Golden Lion. Our Room, 3, was at the rear of the pub. It was a good size with modern, stylish oak decoration. The bathroom was also modern, with white fittings and beige marble floor and walls. The power shower was very effective when you got to work out how it... More

Only wished we had known about the accomodation earlier...but wont elaborate on that. Asked to see the rooms,which were very well appointed and good value for money. The evening meals my husband and I had were delicious,very nicely presented good quality produce,served by efficient friendly staff. Cant wait to return sometime soon on a short break in beautiful Pembrokeshire.

We were really looking forward to lunch in this well reviewed pub/restaurant. However we felt that the experience was only "fair" The pasta with fish was in a tasty but very thin sauce. The burger was served on a board-why? and the obviously frozen chips were served in a little tub. Puddings we felt were over priced. The service was... More

Initial impressions in bar very favourable - half pint of Peroni served in half pint Peroni glass - not in anonymous beer glass as in most places. A good sign of a professionally run business. Route to bedroom confirmed much money invested in public areas; bedroom faultless - again, no expense spared. Staff most efficient and friendly. Restaurant ambience and... More

Excellent facilities in each room. Power showers - so much better than pathetic dribble found in many B&B's. Breakfast was first class. Parking is easy and plenty of it near to entrance. Evening meals can be booked in pub restaurant. Menu is quite extensive but the fillet steak is overpriced and oversized at well over £20. Don't sit on the... More

We stayed here after not being able to get into Llys Meddyg for an extra night and to be honest, I could have stayed here for the whole weekend!! We had room 4/5 (a twin/double linked family room) - the room was sparklingly clean, cosy and warm with lovely beds and scaldingly hot water - they even provide a tray... More

I've stayed at the Golden Lion before and thought it was a lovely place to stay, but hadn't eaten there until quite recently. I went with my husband early one Saturday evening. We were shown into the restaurant and when we got there, only one other table was occupied by a family with two children who were sitting at a... More

We went to the Golden Lion Sunday 12th February 2012. My husband, my 7 year old daughter, our Staffordshire Bull Terrier and I walked to the Golden Lion from our campsite. We sat next to the open fire and had a couple of drinks, including a carling and black (proper blackcurrant, not a cheap substitute that ive had before!) my... More
