About Fforest Inn

Tucked into the Welsh countryside outside Presteigne, this is the kind of proper country pub that feels like a warm cottage — fire lit in the background, books piled by the entrance that quietly occupy a restless child while food is cooking. The owners cook and run the front of house themselves, and they're genuinely good with children; food arrives quickly and in generous portions, which matters when someone's patience is thin. The Sunday carvery gets particular love — plenty of meat, hot veg, not a hint of grease — and the homemade chips and puddings (cheesecake, black forest gateau) are worth saving room for. Gluten-free buns can be arranged. Kids' menu, high chairs, outdoor seating and free parking, with buggy access throughout. One snag: it's small and popular, so booking is essential.
