Excellent place to pick up some top quality cheese, accompaniments and nibbles, or sit and relax with a fantastically presented lunch with a wine and watch the world go by. The portions won’t leave you hungry and the staff are very knowledgable and friendly.

Shopping/Retail
A fantastic local brewery situated in Raglan, Usk just a short drive from the property and selling wonderful and lovingly crafted award-winning ales to suit every taste. From light and hoppy to rich and intense (there is even a Belgian inspired 'Saison', Yum!), you are sure to find the perfect tipple to enjoy whilst sat on our balcony back at the property as the sun goes down! Cheers!
Please note that whilst customers can discover more about how the beers are made the Untapped Brewing Company is not currently running tours, or provide any seating areas to drink at site, this is purely a store, but still worth a visit, and most definitely if you are passing through!

Independant wine merchants in the heart of Abergavenny town just over 4mile away. Owned and run by Lloyd and Ben (with the oversight of Chester the dog whom the place is named after), award winning sommeliers whose knowledge is epic, just like their wines! Visitors can relax with a glass of wine and watch the town go by, or buy a bottle to take back (wines on the wine list as priced, additional bottles from shelf can also be ordered to drink but corkage applies). also stock a range of whisky, gin, ales and ciders. Well worth a visit just for the warm welcome.
