Review on Llanerch Vineyard Bistro

Spread across 20 acres of beautiful Glamorgan countryside amid woodland, pastures and lakes, Llanerch is Wales' largest and oldest vineyard. The enterprise is already a noted tourist attraction, with excellent accommodation, a cookery school, a popular bistro for all day dining and the Cariad Restaurant for afternoon tea and a la carte menus.

The Bistro is located in the heart of the old farmhouse and the newly opened in 2014 Cariad Restaurant is adjacent, with both offering panoramic views across the vineyard. The kitchen works to a well crafted menu showcasing local, British and worldwide classics using fresh local seasonal produce. Don't miss the wines from the vineyard on the well-spread the list.
