The Grove is a country house hotel near Narberth, Pembrokeshire, Wales. The 18th century building is Grade II listed. [2] In 2015 it won the Welsh Hotel of the Year award and entered The Good Hotel Guide 2016. [3]
The hotel took revenues of £4 million in 2022. [4] In order to recruit and retain staff, all employees work a 4-day week. [5]
By 2007 the building was derelict, acquired by new owners Neil Kedward and Zoe Agar, who restored it over the following years. [3] They initially opened a bed and breakfast with Kedward working in the kitchen. [5]
By 2015 the hotel had 20 guest rooms and 2 refurbished cottages in the grounds. [6]
The hotel is set in 26 acres of park land with a two-acre kitchen garden. [1]
The hotel has two restaurants. These are The Fernery, for "posh" dinners and tasting menus and the less formal Artisan Rooms, used for breakfast, lunches and dinner. [7] Most of the dishes are made using locally sourced ingredients, including apples picked in the hotel's grounds. [8] The Fernery opened in 2018 under chef Douglas Balish and has been awarded three AA rosettes. [9]
The Telegraph reviewed the business, scoring 8 out of 10 overall, describing it as "arguably Pembrokeshire's smartest country-house hotel". The style, character and the two restaurants scored 9 out of 10. [7]
In 2022 the reviewer from The Times gave an overall score of 7 out of 10 for the venue, though 8 out of 10 for the hotel's rooms with particular mention for the John Pollard Seddon room and the self-contained cottages with their private gardens. [8]
