Almost 5 years after my previous attempted visit, I tried the Wellington again. There is now a notice on the door stating that the owners couldn't make the business work and it is now closed for good. I can't say I'm surprised, as it never appears to open.

Was disappointed to find this pub closed shortly before 3pm on a Saturday afternoon. They apparently weren't opening until 6pm. Whilst we planned to return, it was simply too far out of the way to do so. A shame, but a pub that does not serve beer on a Saturday afternoon can only warrant a 0/10 score. One day we will revisit and hopefully find it open!

Went looking for this pub for Sunday carvery as stated in the Good Beer Guide, but was told they are no longer on. We settled for the Sunday lunch and it was well served with good meat and veg but only 3 small roast potatoes seemed a bit skimpy. Enjoyed it though. The starter of Carot and Orange soup was excellent, and they had intersting breads on the table. No problem with the Wye Valley beers on tap.

Went to "The Welly" with my girlfriend for an evening meal a few weeks ago and had been warned about how good the restaurant was. I was not disappointed at all. Well worth the 3hr drive from Bournemouth, and all the awards the pub have won are totally deserved on this showing. Congrats on a great establishment.

Wye Valley's HPA on-tap and a brilliant bar/restaurant menu. A little bit pricey, but you get exactly what you pay for.. (and what's not stupidly over-priced these days anyway!!) Went in on a thursday night and just stayed all night.. had some great chats with some 'interesting' locals and then made my excuses. But, blow me, what an experience!

Awards greatly earned. This is a great pub with a hugely successful restaurant and if you go there, you'll see why. They have a Sunday roast to die for, but that certainly isn't surprising when the best locally sourced meat and veg is arriving on your plate. This is one of my favourite pubs in the county and will always be recommended to friends and business partners alike. Wye Valley beers on tap :)

A great shame. My ancestor the Duke would be very disappointed with his namesake pub in Wellington. Just as the Flavour of Herefordshire accolades were being nailed to the wall at the front of house, the standards in the kitchen fell through the floor. On a recent visit the chef managed to dress lamb as mutton by seriously overcooking it and foisted on us boiled potatoes instead of the roasted variety boasted in the menu. The poor old Wellington has met its Waterloo.

Was driving round the area looking for somewhere to eat after a heavy night on the beer. We popped into this place and were pleasantly surprised by the layout and atmosphere. The beer was good, but we didnt see anything that caught our eye on the menu so decided not to bother. My only gripe was the dyke sitting reading a newspaper while her girlfriend was serving behind the bar.

Over rated and pretentious

Sirloin steak sandwich in ciabatta roll with hand cut chips and red onion marmalade. Steak left with grizzle on it, and I hate having to take these inedible lumps out of my mouth. Marmalade inoffensive if tasteless and chips over cooked. How did they win awards? Is this the best Herefordshire has? Oh dear.

Well modernised, retaining proper bar area. Superb food: check out the home-cured ham.
