Three Horseshoes Country Inn in The Vale of Glamorgan

Homemade sticky toffee pudding is a must!

Ideal if you need to eat with your kids..as you can and they can play..it’s a nice place.

11 nights stay - had an amazing time here. Definitely one of the nicest places I stayed in. Spacious, clean rooms, lovely people and fantastic food

Had a family meal. Food was great as was the service. Great play area for the kids.

A great pub and hotel all in one, food was fresh and tasty and I had a comfortable stay, staff were superb.

Absolutely amazing service food fantastic aswell

Lovely food friendly and great for family and children

Booked for Grandaughters 30th we arrived no effort was made to put tables together or enhance tables music in other room but none in ours barman was miserable lack of beers I phoned during week to ask about menu they were supposed to ring me on the Fri 13th Sept but they didn't my partners steak pie was soggy at the bottom and over cooked on top and he had bad stomach after one person's steak was inedible full of fat and gristle the ribs were boiled and they advertised chips as being home cooked they were frozen they couldn't even do a simple ploughman's lunch so will never go there again I certainly will not be recommending them

Only went for a quick drink but it was very nice and busy

Lovely food, nice location and good utilities for children including a soft play area and an outdoor park

Nice quiet location, good for excursions in the area, staff is not very friendly, rooms are small, room cleaning is not done properly, no air conditioning, so hot and stuffy. Stink from the kitchen exhaust and sewer in the room, breakfast always the same with little choice. Too expensive!

Pet friendly establishment, well worth the short drive out of Barry. We arrived at about 8.20, kitchen was closing but they said they would keep it open - glad they did. We ate from across the menu, ribs, burger, beef brisket, hake, lasagne and swordfish, all excellently cooked with a good range of accompaniments. Good range of drinks and lovely atmosphere. Would definitely visit again.

Good food, good service, EXCELLENT play areas for the kids, both indoors and out

Lovely pub with a huge play park at the rear beer garden with plenty of swings slides and climbing frames. Inside is a very big soft play area which can be used when ordering food. There are limited tables in the soft play area but plenty in the main part of the pub. The food was reasonably priced and good. It’s the first time we had been there but would definitely go again. There are rooms as well and so plenty of people staying there.

Great pub definitely family and dog friendly...staff really lovely helpful and efficient.loads of parking lovely gardens. I couldn't rate the rooms because I didn't stay there overnight. Food good quality and delicious would most definitely recommend .

A bit off the main street, we had a late lunch of steak pie, chips, peas and gravy. All homemade, big portions and well worth the money. Good quality food too. My friend had lasagne and garlic bread with salad. Very big pub with outdoor seating with nice menu choices. Play area outside for children. Young staff serving. No idea about bedrooms. Will return that's for definite.

Food is delicious. Service is exemplary and facilities are well kept. Large indoor and outdoor play areas for children.

It's been a while, finally someone who knows how to cook a steak, great food and the staff were pleasant and helpful

Had dinner with a colleague who was staying here on a business trip to Barry. The food was so good and the service so friendly that a came back the following morning for breakfast!

We visited this pub on 4th February 2024, as we were looking for a spot of lunch and watch some jolly good football. Prior to booking we called and asked if they Sky Sports, a lady answered and said yes, upon arrival there was no Sky Sports. A small mistake. We were then greeted by some fool, who said we couldn't sit in certain areas of the pub as they were "reserved", when 60% of the pub was empty. The male waiter made us move to a seating area with uncomfortable chairs, and 2 of us had to face away from the TV (he really didn't want us there). The vibe was just off, the way he spoke was condescending and lacked eye contact when he spoke to any of us. We saw this same waiter smiling and having a laugh with other customers 30 seconds later, so he couldn't of been having a bad day. We asked for his assistance again, just in case there was a misunderstanding, but again he spoke to us in a condescending way, and avoided any eye contact. As a brown person, we were definitely treated differently, so we left after being there for 10 minutes.

Lovely place to stay. Decent size room. Great shower. Food is amazing and giant portions. Also wanted to say thank you to Matt, Adam gang. You all made our stay so enjoyable. Thank you so much for looking after us so well.

Waited an hour for food. 4 chicken gounjons (which weren't homage) with I tiny pot of sweet chilli sauce for £8. Not worth it. Tasteless and bland linguine with dry garlic bread. My partner had Steak and rib combo medium rare (Came out well done) Ribs dry with lack of bbq sauce. Over cooked chips. (Starch hadn't been washed off before cooking) pepper corn sauce had a layer of oil on top. ( not been skimmed) meals brought out with no cutlery or condiments. No check back to see if meal was OK. Definitely won't be back. Disappointed with our experience.

Food was delicious. Staff friendly and courteous.

Haven't had a meal there for years but unfortunately won't be again. Lovely friendly staff. Had the medium chicken curry with chips and rice with Naan bread. Chips were dark and tasted of burned cooking oil, the curry wasn't too bad but tasted of coconut and the Naan bread was as hard as the dinner plate.

We love visiting, big beer garden with pods at the back, and in the winter it’s lovely inside. Great food and hospitality.

Stayed here for work purposes and loved it! The food is amazing the rooms are so nice, comfortable with all you need. The staff are very welcoming and accommodating. Will definitely be going back for leisure. Would highly recommend!! One happy customer!!

Very nice meal haf a great afternoon

Excellent country Inn for the family with play park and soft play. Not the cheapest but quality food and drink

Extremely friendly service, quaint location. Lots of character to the room. Staff went above and beyond for our stay. Best highlight was the absolutely delicious breakfast made from locally sourced ingredients. The quality was unmatched. Only criticism is that walls can be a little thin and it was a little tricky to stay next to an infant and a gentleman who had a habit of dry heaving in the morning.

Clean pleasant staff, polite, helpful.

Easy distance from Cardiff, Barry and various local attractions like St Fagins and Castell Coch, set in lush rolling farmland hills. Gorgeous well appointed room. Small but well proportioned. Immaculately clean. Friendly staff who made us feel welcome. And the food was excellent. I deduct one star from the room as to the back of us was the continual sound of some sort of mechanical thing. My partner wasn’t in the least bit bothered by this and slept soundly but it bugged me - Presumably the hotels refrigerator and freezer?. Earplugs the second night took care of that and ensured a good nights sleep. There are some good walks too from the hotel itself though if recommend bringing a map paper or electronic with you as the tiny nearby villages don’t come with signs. I would absolutely stay there again.

Lovely night stay at the three Horseshoes. Travelling for work, it was 5 minutes from the airport. Cozy room, friendly staff. Bed was comfortable, no issues with noise and lovely breakfast. Only issue was there was quite a bit of dust gathering on the coat hanger and other bits nothing that couldn’t be cleared quite quickly. Extra brownie points for milk portions! Nothing more irritating than having 6 coffee sachets and then just 2 milk portions! Well done for the extra milk!

I came here as a party of 24, there was 6 children… all children had there meals brought out. An one child’s food wasn’t brought out for another 20 minutes. By then the other children had finished an wanted to go and play. Also one adult meal had a twig in it, an the restaurant refused to do anything about it, another adult meals chicken was RAW and again they refused to do anything about it and got told there was no one authorised to do a refund. I think it’s absolutely disgusting that we’ve come as a party of 24 for a 30th birthday and have been disregarded and told there’s nothing they can do to compensate. Never again will I visit here.

Nice place, lovely family pub with children's indoor and outdoor area. Nice atmosphere, very scenic location.

A lovely gem in the countryside, scenery is good. Really nice food. Room very comfortable, couldn't fault a one night stay. Awesome breakfast served by Karen, courteous and polite. Will definitely be staying again at this gem of a place.

Always excellent food. Very welcoming staff. Lovely place to visit.

Food not good very poor for price ..burgers burnt and salty nothing gourmet about them!! Chips are scrap ends! Staff need to go on a customer service course as they came across rude apart from barman who was friendly and one other .......

Enjoyed my nights stay here. Staff worked hard to deliver excellent service.

Wonderful place, with welcoming staff! Good Ales and great food. The room is clean and cozy! I will return if I can! Good opportunities for walking around and to wind down after busy months of work!

Meals were great and even better for the kids

What can I say other than WOW! Beautiful place, stunning location and just the best food! Staff are amazingl, friendly and attentive without being in your space. A very busy country pub that is a must for anyone who enjoys good food, good service and just brilliant people 🙌🏻

My self, my wife and two year old toddler stayed here twice, on the way from the fishguard ferry and on the return journey 5 days later. When we arrived, we were greeted by a lovely man, very welcoming, showed us to our roo explained about the doors and gate being locked which we both thought was odd. We were happy with room as is was very spacious for our toddler to run around in with the travel cot we brought, the bathroom was very tight however. We asked for this room again if possible for the return journey. We stayed for dinner and it was excellent, food was hot and not too long of a wait for which I would never mind for good food. I had the fillet steak which is my favourite and only steak I'll eat. The menu states that's its only cooked rare and my god you can see why when it's cooked that way. Cook it my self the same way, 10/10 to the chef. We were driving from fishguard to London and its worth the detour for the steak alone. My smalie and wife's food were spot on too. Full marks. Breakfast next morning was good too, the lady who served us was pleasant and interactive with our toddler, you could see she was used to kids and when we had a hicup with cheese on the breakfast omelet she corrected it straight away, no fuss. Left very happy. The return journey was sightly different however, we got a phone call enquiring on what time we thought we'd besarrivingbat, which eas very nice to see them checking on the guests requirements prior to arrival. Nice touch. When we arrived a Sunday evening, you could see they were busy, we got the same room again as requested and happy with that. We booked for dinner but there was no fillet stake on the menu, I asked the waitress I'f she could check sith the chef which she did but there was none there only strip lion as per the menu. So instead or the stake I order ordered the roast of the day, Lamb which she looked some what dismayed by. My family ordered what they wanted and in about 20 odd minutes it arrived. The families food was was grand but mine was luke warm to cold. The lamb was cool, veg was cold, patotes luke warm. The waitress was busy taking orders and so much time had passed that I just ate it. At no point did she return to Check if the food was OK or we needed anything. You could see she didn't give a s#@t. Congratulations you went from 10/10 with the steak to 0/10 for serving cold food and poor to zero customer engagement effort. When we got back to the bedroom, both my wife and my self burnt our left leg/knee from the towel rad suitated right next to the toilet, we thought this was a poor judgment but when our toddler grabbed the towel rail and burnt his hand, this needs to be resighted else where. Then our lovely neighbour next to us started watching an action movie until after 11,bit challenging when ur trying to get a smallie off to sleep and when we thought these rooms were sound proofed. left dissapointed from the food on the second night and safety concerns on the towel rail.

Best pint I've had in ages. Friendly staff in a beautiful location. Has a large outside play area for children

Adult meals are abit pricey, but that's expected for what your paying for your taking children. £10 per kid (we had 3) for soft play, amazing meal and incredible flavoursome ice cream! The ladies in charge was abit on the moody side ,but that's expected considering they had their hands full. But they were still amazing and were on what ever you needed! It's hard to find a soft play area where adults can enjoy them selvs too. Would 10000% recommend this place! 👌 please visit this space to experience it yourself

Excellent Sunday roast...very tasty and hot...Excellent service too

It's a pub. Good for family's and social occasions. Out door play area and indoor soft play area. Food lovely, staff polite and friendly

Absolutely horrendous evening food was well over priced service was really slow even though the place was empty.will 100% not be returning .

Nice friendly place....Good food

Poor poor customer service we booked for Saturday 2nd march for a party of 18 people for our daughters 17th birthday meal and get together paid £30 deposit at time of booking only for us to arrive and be told there’s limited food on menu as they’d sold out of most items absolutely ridiculous as we booked with plenty of time in advance this ruined our daughters birthday as booking was 7 o’clock and was to late to find anywhere else for so many people poor management and if anyone reading this is thinking about booking this place book with caution. If we’d of not turnt up our deposit would’ve been taken they only agreed to return deposit because some family arrived early and bought drinks not even a apology shocking management won’t ever be returning and we use to frequently visit just really disappointed by them but u live and learn

Had a good meal and the kids loved it

Location is not good, as it's impossible to get to if flooded and the roads are closed, room needs a good clean, I had lots of cobwebs of my ceiling and carpet was worn. The food is ok, but not worth the price, especially as I could watch the chef cook my food in the microwave. However, staff are very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I'd stay again, but I doubt I'd eat there.

The food is outstanding, good sized portions, good quality and taste. I've been there three times and the only thing that has let the place down is the service time. Today we waited 25mins for the desert to come out. Not sure I'll go again as it seems the same issue on each visit. But compliments to the chef, the meals have always been superb.

Excellent food Pleasant staff , warm welcome

As a regular visitor to this place I was left deeply upset on my last visit because of staff attitude. As a large group with no booking, I turned up 4pm politely asking if there’s any availability. There were plenty of empty tables and 2 tables had families/children sat at them. The man greeted us sat us down no problem. He then came to take orders, I ordered drinks and adult food starters, but asked if I could wait 45 mins to put kids orders in. (One kid on medication needed with food so needed to hold off a bit). I was shocked that the man said I need to order straight away as our table will be needed soon as it’s going to get really busy. He was very cocky saying he’ll come back in 2 mins to take kids orders. He brought drinks we just ordered, got his pen out and demanded to take kids orders, again saying remarks implying we need to hurry up, eat, leave. I reiterated I will be ordering kids meals but can he please wait. I asked how long have we got the table for (incase it was reserved later) he mumbled a reply but I think he said 2 hours (until 6pm). I assured I’ll be ordered before our exit at 6pm, he still complained how he needs us to eat and move on as it’s going to be really busy! I got very upset, I felt so awkward, I lost my appetite and did not want mains. We would have left as we were made to feel like we had to rush off and leave. We usually relax and buy drinks but didn’t want to do this even, so made my bill as small as possible. Would have left it kids enjoy playing in play barn. I approached a waitress and told her I’m upset and she was lovely, and I used her to take my kids food orders. She assured me I can order whenever I want and there’s no rush. 6pm came, the pub was EMPTY! Our table was not reserved. Which I found quite shocking that this man portrayed people would be scrambling for tables! Awful. There was one very grumpy old man serving at the bar who was awfully rude to me few weeks back. And he never smiles and don’t look like he likes people or life in general. As a regular customer paying overpriced prices to go there, this service is shocking. Thank god for the few staff that are friendly, it seems they know what the above staff are like and are used to complaints.

Great pub food was good. Friendly staff

6 yr old Birthday party. 10 children, 11 adults. We ordered food and kindly asked the children get food 1st, adults see to them, then they can rdlax with their meal. Long wait, adults food 1st, I had finished mine before the youngest child got her meal. 4 adults had gourmet burger (with salad), no salad on any, after a mention, they brought salad, but meal almost finished then. £1.50 overpriced for the burger, good but not really good. Worst of all, no guerkin.

Friendly, the kids loved it there.

Great food and drinks staff are the best

Had the rib eye steak not the best sorry In the back room very cold Do like it here but needs to buck up on the steaks very very dear. For what I got

Just stopped for a drink mid-afternoon. Very pleasant. Richard, the landlord, chatted with us for ages. We'll definitely be back.

Nice pub, comfortable rooms, slightly let down by a disappointing cask ale selection.

Food was poor, salad in burger was very basic. I had the sensational burger. Definitely not sensational. Chips were oven chips. Not worth the money. Staff were absent, not a smile between the 4 I saw. Not one for negative reviews generally, but considering we paid over sixty pounds, the quality of food or service just wasn’t there

Pub is great for family's. Fantastic play area for the little ones. Great food.

Excellent food & skittle alley. Staff & service excellent.

We ate here for a family birthday as quite a big party. Within the group we ordered a wide range of different items from the menu and everyone was extremely happy with their meals. All the staff were friendly and the owner was lovely. Lush cozy pub we will definitely be returning to :) The soft play area is a bonus for the kids and has its own area out of the way of the restaurant. Highly recommend

We stayed at the Three Horseshoes Country Inn many times over the summer for work and we were always welcomed and always enjoyed our stay. The rooms are all really nice in our experience, having stayed in several different rooms over the course of the summer. Very comfortable beds, nicely decorated and furnished rooms, peaceful location, we slept very well. We would often arrive after dinner service but they were always very accommodating and would rustle us something up or would take an order phoned through on our journey over from Barry. The location is perfect for getting into Barry, ideally close and also lovely to be in the countryside. The staff were always great, particularly one young gentleman who I wish I could recall his name; he went above and beyond in customer service. The pub is a nice space to be, both inside and outside in the garden. A relaxing atmosphere. All in all highly recommended as a place to stay.

Can't go wrong here, prices are decent, kids love it, good park outside and grab soft play inside. The actual pub area is really nice for adults too!

Room was not as promised as a family room. The bed was very uncomfortable - old creaking springs on mattress a restless nights sleep. Extractor fan not working in bathroom. Dust and cobwebs behind tv not cleaned for years filthy. Raised concerns to Manager at checkout (Jacob) displayed a very flippant attitude and told me to take it up with Booking. Com. Will NOT be going there again - Manager no Customer Sevice skills poor attitude.

The guy at the bar booked me in no problem and escorted me to my room, which was clean and cosy. The bar restaurant was beautiful, so if you wanted a night away with a loved one, this would be the place. The food was amazing, I had the sirloin stake, which was cooked just how I like it. The food is locally sourced, and you can tell. I would return.

Very comfortable accommodation. Clean and tidy everywhere. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. Good choice of food and drink. Highly recommend. Looking forward to visiting again xx

Lovely place to stay, great food, service and atmosphere, will definitely go back.

My daughter complained about the lemonade tasting more like water and the barman gave her real attitude which was uncalled for

Every aspect of my stay was excellent. Location-facilities-Staff-Food. Friendly atmosphere.

Went for the first time this evening with a big group for a family meal. The service was shocking. Meat came out on the plate as normal then waited 15 minutes for vegetables for my dinner. The portion of vegetables was shocking. I had 2 carrots and 2 bits of broccoli and a teaspoon of peas in a portion? I had to eat the roast potatoes and meat before the vegetables even arrived because they went cold. Very expensive for such a small portion with many problems.

Nice country pub, spent a lot of money outside since the last time I visited, very family friendly, only had a cider here, but it was all good.
