I stayed at the Halfway House on April16th 2013. Although it is slightly "tucked away" and not easy to find, I did eventually, with help from the staff via my phone, find my way to the Hotel. The Evening Meal was excellent value for money, served in a cosy and comfortable Bar. I wasn't however able to connect to the... More

Had a meal at the hotel/pub today and quite frankly, was severely disappointed. My meal was inedible with the "slow cooked beef" very tough. After leaving it, I was given a pathetic £3 discount after I complained. Personally, I don't think I should have paid for it at all. My sister's chicken stuffed with cheese was worryingly luke warm inside.... More

Booked at the last minute but expected by staff. Lovely welcome from Jolene who showed us to our room. Room was modern and clean with tea and coffee making facilities. Ensuite appeared recently decorated. Shower new but temperamental - very hot or luke warm. Staff and locals very welcoming and friendly. Enjoyed the Tuesday night quiz. Only full English offered...

I tried to door bell and called their phone to no avail So I drove around for a while and returned at about 5:00pm to find the upstairs lights on so all looked promising. I repeated the door bell and... More

Enjoyed a great evening in the restaurant. The food is great and well presented. I can recommend the soup, Dragon's Kiss (mild curry) and the Chicken New Yorker. An absolute must is the sticky toffee pudding - absolutely delicious! I can honestly say that this place has the best welcome and customer service that I've experienced in a long time... More

Well, after a pleasant journey from Dorset through the autumnal Welsh valleys, we arrived at the Halfway House and had a very pleasant welcome, unfortunately I didn't enquire as to the ladies name (we did arrive on Saturday at 12 noon, so to the mystery lady with dark hair, you are a credit to the Halfway House). We were showed... More

Ok so here is the saga that was my stay at the half way house, now first off i'd like to say that at least part of the problems were not their fault but they way they dealt with the situation was shockingly poor and this is why i mention it. We arrived saturday morning, we'd booked 2 rooms, one... More

Was visiting a friend in Blackwood and needed somewhere reasonable to stay! Booked this last minute after searching on the Internet, and I was pleased! The room was well presented and clean. The bed was comfortable and it was so peaceful! The TV in the room was broken but after reporting it was quickly fixed! Breakfast the next morning was... More
