Property Description
The Bear is a favourite for Romantic couples, especially since it became a hideaway for Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor at the height of their love affair. With its Ivy Clad façade, oak beams, open fireplaces and stone walls, it exudes warmth and cosiness, perfect if you want to escape from it all and treat yourself to some good old fashioned hospitality. Extensively refurbished throughout, the hotel now boasts a conference centre complete with state-of-the-art facilities.
