Owner's description

The Inn at Penallt is a 17th Century traditional country Inn located in the Wye Valley with spectacular views of the Forest of Dean.

The Inn was acquired by Chris & Bronwyn Boston in January 2016 after they realised that the Inn was an exceptional destination venue. The Inn had already secured a fantastic reputation as a ‘foodie retreat’ and we see huge potential to build on and expand the Inn’s offerings.

The recent appointment of our excellent head chef, Kevin Lee, provides a fresh approach to the Inns' a la carte menu, set lunch menus, light snacks and bespoke vegan/vegetarian menu’s whilst focusing and supporting local farmers who rear rare pedigree beef and pork, as well other local producers such as artisan bread suppliers. We also have strong beliefs in paying a little more for quality produce from local producers. In addition to this, we are developing the Inns kitchen garden and in collaboration with the Gwent Wildlife Trust, there will be future direct access for guests to the Trusts summer wild flower meadows. Bronwyn is also working with the non-profit organisation ‘Art in Penallt’ to show case work from leading local artists at the Inn.

The bar has a relaxed atmosphere with a wood burning open fire, a cosy restaurant and a well-balanced wine list of over 75 options including white and sparkling wines from local Monmouthshire vineyards. The Inn welcomes walkers, cyclists and classic car and bike enthusiasts and also have dedicated dog friendly accommodation and bar.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
