A Taste of Wales

Herefordshire, the Brecon Beacons and the Welsh Marches are all known for their wonderful produce. Our Head Chef has created new modern, local menus, including seasonal Welsh dishes using produce from local suppliers. Our menus offer classic dishes, that are well executed, whilst our Garden Room Restaurant offers a truly luxurious experience in classical surroundings. We are open every day - lunch between 12 noon and 2.30pm and dinner 5.30pm 'til 8.30pm.

Our kitchen team take pride in everything that they produce, and hope that our diners have a memorable experience.  Guests are free to choose between dining our stunning garden surrounded by fruit trees and pretty flowers or in The Garden Room, The 1812 Bar or The Market Bar. 

We are pleased to announce that we have introduced a brand new menu and concept at The Swan. Choose from a succulent rib-eye or sirloin steak or local lamb shank, plus many more tasty dishes. The choice is yours (available 12:00-14:30 & 17:30-20:30). Bring the little ones too - we've got a new children's menu to satisfy the hungriest! Oh, and we are very dog-friendly too, so feel free to bring the pooch.

“Relaxation at its best”

A beautiful, elegant hotel in the town of Hay-on-Wye. Our room was spacious and comfortable. The food and drink menus were extensive and very good value for money.
