The Great House Hotel - A Grade II listed hotel with award-winning dining and historic charm

Set in a beautifully restored Grade II listed building, The Great House Hotel retains original features like flagstone floors, oak beams, and inglenook fireplaces alongside modern amenities. The 3-star property offers 11 individually designed rooms with luxury Myddfai Awel-Y-Mor toiletries, bathrobes, and a choice of silk duvets or wool blankets. Leicester's Restaurant, the current Hotel Restaurant of the Year for Wales, serves seasonal dishes like Welsh beef in red wine sauce and a notable gin selection at the bar. Located 3 km from Newbridge Fields and 4 km from Ewenny Priory, afternoon tea is available in the lounge or gardens with freshly baked scones and fair trade coffees.

Pros

The award-winning restaurant uses locally sourced Welsh ingredients, including organic produce.

Individually designed rooms feature luxury amenities like silk duvets and premium toiletries.

The historic Grade II listed building retains original architectural features.

Afternoon tea is served daily with freshly baked goods in garden or lounge settings.

Cons

Smoking is restricted to designated outdoor areas only.

Some attractions require a short drive (3-4 km) to access.

“The Great House Hotel stands out for its surprisingly generous food, from inclusive breakfasts to dinners. I particularly like the garden lodge option, a two-level space ideal for families. The staff earn consistent praise, creating a welcoming environment, and the garden and patio offer inviting spots for drinks.”
