Gay Friendly Country House Luxurious Hotel and Restaurant Shropshire Pen-y-Dyffryn Luxury Country House Hotel, Rhydycroesau, Oswestry, Shropshire Welsh Borders  www.peny.co.uk This beautiful hotel in the Shropshire and Wales border hills is a supremely peaceful country house providing the perfect retreat to escape from the madding crowd and enjoy the stunning Welsh border countryside. Set in five acres of grounds with no passing traffic, this silver-stone former rectory exudes a magical calm. There is a selection of gorgeous bedrooms where private patios, double jacuzzis, spa baths and stunning views abound. Dining in the elegant restaurant, where huge south-facing sash windows frame the ever-changing and beautiful views, is central to the whole enchanting Pen-y-Dyffryn experience and the food is sensational, as you would expect from a restaurant with two AA Rosettes. Miles and Audrey together with their loyal and friendly team of staff have successfully captured the rare combination of unobtrusive hospitality, luxury, and high standards of service and accommodation that guarantee that “away from it all” feeling. It is little wonder that together they have more awards for hospitality and food than you can shake a stick at. Why? Quite simply because this is a rare and very special place for only the luckiest people to discover. What a fabulous relaxing friendly stay with superb food. |

Gay Friendly Tradtional Country Inn, Bed &
Breakfast and Restaurant, Ross on Wye, Gloucestershire The Farmers Boy Inn, Ross Road, Longhope, Ross on Wye, Gloucestershire  www.thefarmersboyinn.co.uk We were made up to chance upon the Farmers Boy Inn at Longhope one lunchtime in October, all four of us being in desperate need of a “livener” and something to eat following the hectic party we had attended the previous evening in Cheltenham. Justin who doesn’t drink alcohol was our driver as usual. We were greeted with a crackling log fire and a friendly welcome from Phil (who we later found out owns and runs The Farmers Boy aided by his energetic and friendly young team of staff) who served us our drinks and took our food order. The menu is a treat with good old English favourites together with a comprehensive and an imaginative selection on the á la carte menu. We all chose their famous 2 in 1 Pie (half steak & Guinness and half cauliflower cheese) which was simply to die for. After our meal and a few more drinks we asked Phil if the Farmers Boy provided accommodation and without any hesitation we were shown their guest bedrooms which are located in a newly built annexe behind the inn. The bedrooms are all en-suite, beautifully presented and well equipped. It was nearly 5pm when we reluctantly had to leave this fabulously friendly and beautiful inn. There is something more here than the exposed beams, log fires, exceptionally good food and superb accommodation: it is quite simply the wonderful friendly greeting, atmosphere and the gentle Irish humour from a very special landlord and his friendly team of staff. The only downside at The Farmers Boy was dragging ourselves away for our return journey to Wales and work. |
