A lovely prospect in an entrancing bucolic setting, The Grove at Narberth not only does fine dining admirably but also caters for those seeking a simpler, more relaxed experience. Indeed, if you’re staying for a day or two, the Artisan Rooms offers ‘a perfect balance of comfort and creativity,’ as well as a change of pace from the main event of dining in the flagship Fernery.

Desserts exhibit similar scope – you could plump for the hearty comforts of rice pudding laced with rum and pineapple or go for the swankier chocolate-encased, gold-spangled chocolate gâteau with pistachio and cherries. It’s all very easy-going and enjoyable. There’s also the pleasure of ‘thoughtfully crafted’ Sunday roasts and a sophisticated wine list with plentiful options by the glass.
