What guests think
Reviews of Fox And Hounds Llancarfan describe a characterful village inn with very good pub food and a cosy atmosphere, set in a peaceful rural location, though some rooms feel dated and occasional maintenance or cleanliness issues are reported.
Many guests praise the warm, attentive staff and welcoming locals, while a few struggled to reach staff late at night or in the early morning. Several find rooms comfortable and well presented, with some noting weak in-room Wi-Fi and occasional noise from neighbouring guests. Food draws strong praise for tasty dinners and pub fare, though one review found breakfast poor and another encountered no evening service. Expect a friendly country-inn stay with character and warm service.

Such a warm friendly welcome at this great find. Food, service and pub vibe was exceptional. Rooms was spacious and clean and well presented but do need updating, but as I understand it this pub changed hand 6 months ago and I would also prioritise the pub!!. This was a great pet friendly find in a lovely hidden village.

A short-stay business trip, but what a treasure to find! Friendly, clean, tidy, with a good selection of beers and something on the menu to suit any taste. Everything laid out next day for an early (06:30) breakfast getaway.

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at The Fox and Hounds. A little haven just up the road from the bustle of Cardiff where we had a brilliant night seeing the Stereophonics. Adam and all staff couldn’t have been more welcoming and attentive, very friendly locals and a brilliant taxi firm recommended who chauffeured us to and from the gig. An absolutely lovely little break away and we are looking forward to returning, concert or not.

Having visited some time before, this is situated by a stunning church and quite villiage and warranted another visit due to a family party nearby. Has been taken over recently and things are going in the right direction as was looking a little tired. Food is great, as are the staff and sence a a great villiage pub

There were huge bed bugs and cobwebs everywhere. I ended up sleeping in my car. The manager was amazing and stated he only bought property a couple of months ago. I did get a full refund, which was expected as I had to sleep in my car. I sent a video to the owner, which he was shocked as cleaners went in the day before. If that was the case you NEED to sack the cleaners. When I collected my things the next morning, I saw the cleaners who were very rude to me.

We have just returned home from an overnight stay at your place and have to say we were extremely disappointed. The room its self didn’t feel very clean and smelt of curry or something similar. The door was was extremely sticky and had to be almost forced to get both in and out of the room. We stayed in room number 3. The pictures on Expedia are extremely misleading because the room that I booked looked nothing like the pictures displayed online. There was mould around the bath, the toilet was slanted and felt like you were sliding off of it when you sat down and the cistern at the back of the toilet seemed to be coming away from the wall and there were missing tiles too. We wanted to shower but couldn’t shower as there was no hot water which is absolutely disgusting and there isn’t anyone on site to raise the issues with. We got up and left early because we just couldn’t wait to get away from the place.All in all we would definitely never return and would not recommend the accommodation to friends or family.

Located in a picturesque countryside village, the pub is welcoming and staff/locals are friendly. No evening food service on the night of our stay so we had to venture to find food. Not ideal after a lengthy drive but nothing in the village. Rooms are basic and a bit tired but generally clean. The shower however is only suitable for persons under 6ft (room 6)due to the shower tray position. We had rowdy neighbours who continued until 2am despite requests to turn the volume down, unable to locate any staff to assist with matter which didn't help. Didn't stay for breakfast so cannot comment on that. A shame really because given its location.

The landlord has just taken over the property but was incredibly accommodating and friendly. The building is a lovely old inn with all the quirks that come with that and bags of character. WiFi is an issue in the rooms due to the thickness of the walls but it is present downstairs.

An absolutely lovely little break away and we are looking forward to returning, concert or not.

Located in a picturesque countryside village, the pub is welcoming and staff/locals are friendly. No evening food service on the night of our stay so we had to venture to find food. Not ideal after a lengthy drive but nothing in the village. Rooms are basic and a bit tired but generally clean. The shower however is only suitable for persons under 6ft (room 6)due to the shower tray position. We had rowdy neighbours who continued until 2am despite requests to turn the volume down, unable to locate any staff to assist with matter which didn't help. Didn't stay for breakfast so cannot comment on that. A shame really because given its location.

Having visited some time before, this is situated by a stunning church and quite villiage and warranted another visit due to a family party nearby. Has been taken over recently and things are going in the right direction as was looking a little tired. Food is great, as are the staff and sence a a great villiage pub

I had to leave did not stay . After a long day on the road I arrived and booked in . The room needed a complete overhaul . I’m in the flooring trade and the carpets were a cheap domestic quality not suitable for the insulation . They were worn and dirty . I put the shower on and the shower tray filled up with water and flooded the bathroom . I’m sure that water then would have gone through the ceiling . I asked the young girl behind the bar to be moved to another room but no double rooms were available . There was no manager for me to speak to . Also the restaurant was closed on a Tuesday which I was not aware of . All in all it was a bad experience after a long day on the road . So unfortunately I had to pack up and leave . She assured me that I wouldn’t be charged but it’s still showing up on my bank account . For a business traveller this is a definite no no . Sorry for this review but I’m extremely disappointed .

Such a lovely inn. The staff was wonderful. The deck was a charming place to spend a sunny afternoon. Food was delicious! Despite feeling like we were in a country town, It was about 10 minutes from the airport. Typical narrow hedge row roads all around!
