The Boat Inn

Location

Patio overgrown

Great location for where we needed to be for a wedding great for walking

Nothing only very few taxis in Monmouth book early if you want one

Fantastic location. Had not been here for 30 and on a bit of a nostalgia tour as brought up in the area. It did not disappoint. Very clean and well equiped. Would recomend as a base to discover the area or for watersports on the river. I cannot believe I will not be back.

Excellent location, very cosy.

The apartment is big, bedrooms and bathroom overlooking the river and the bridge. Has all the needed facilities. Very confortable. Great location for exploring the region.

Great location… good size accommodation for family… clean, well equipped and great staff

There's no doubt that The Boat Inn is a lovely, traditional pub in a super location, right on the banks of the Wye with good views of the river from the bedrooms above the pub. The surroundings are wooded and distinctly bosky, which is nice. There is a small village (Redbrook) with a village shop a few hundred metres away across an old railway bridge. The Boat serves excellent food, but only on certain days - Thursday to Sunday, from memory. BUT beware of the journey there, from the main roads: the roads are exceptionally narrow but well maintained. There are two ways into the actual village (Penallt). I soon learned to ignore the satnav and to follow the signs on the road nearby: that route is a bit easier. Of course, you can always park in the village car park across the bridge (Redbrook): it's only a couple of hundred metres away. The accommodation is old-fashioned, comfortable and accessible up some slightly dodgy stone steps at the side of the pub. There's a private terrace although (when we were there) somewhat overgrown - and you can't see the river from the terrace, just the hills and woods around. Still nice, though. Locals and staff are really friendly and helpful. Quiz night is Wednesday. It's a great stay.

The. location is amazing, very rural, quiet, relaxing. Saw some big salmon jumping for flies in the Wye. Great place for bird / wildlife watching. Lovely and clean on this side of the the Wye and over the bridge in Redbrook, no litter anywhere, pride is taken in these communities. Staff were very polite, responsive and welcoming. We had a lovely burger in the pub. Great local ciders, beers, and Wye Valley gin available even! Would stay again. The terrace above is a fantastic place to have a coffee / glass of wine. The plants,- flora and fauna are stunning, and listening to the birdlife was really heartwarming. A truly close to nature experience.

The fat fryer cooking smells were very prominent from the pub downstairs, because it was very humid, our windows had to be open. The furniture on the terrace needs some TLC

location was ideal for walking & pub was very good

very dark inside & outside terrace was partially usable. very overgrown & seating wasn’t good
