Butterflies Bar & Kitchen
Restaurant
👍👍 We came today for the festive menu and I cannot recommend it enough. The portions were massive, you can taste the amazing quality of the ingredients and they're cooked beautifully. The staff are all so friendly and attentive.
It wasn't our first visit and it definitely won't be our last either.

The Whistle Inn and Park
Pub
👍👍 Really pleased I found this pub and campsite. I stayed on a Saturday night for £10, there are 15 hardstandings so you don't sink in the grass! I had an evening meal which was really nice and excellent value for money and was kept company by some friendly locals. Even my dog was spoiled with treats...

Garn Lakes
Nature preserve
👍👍 Very lovely place for a walk (even on a wet day) found on the off chance of driving to Blaenavon and decided to stop for a walk. Found the car park and had a lovely stroll. Views were amazing and both lakes beautiful. Recommended and as local to me will become one of my go to walking areas.
