Attended the “Launch Party” at the Dorallt Inn yesterday and had an absolutely fabulous afternoon .. It looks as though the new owners have worked tirelessly to revamp/Decorate in a short space of time ready for yesterday and it really showed..

Great atmosphere, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely go to another night. Looking forward to having a new local here In cwmbran. Big hats off to the new management...
