This is one of our local drinking spots, although it's not really a pub but a Hotel with a bar. I can only personally vouch for the bar part of the establishment, which is very good. There's all the stuff you'd expect (pool table, darts board, jukebox etc) and they do good pub grub. In the summer you can brave the midges (it's perched on the edge of the Llwernog, a tributary of the Rheidol) and sit in the garden. This is a relatively child friendly spot, so long as you keep half an eye open.

I have it on good authority that the hotel is reasonable as well, but the room I've seen was a bit on the compact side. The George Burrow is the closest hotel (or pub) to the Bronze Age sites to the west of Pumlumon. It's also relatively near Devil's Bridge and about 25 minutes by car from Aberystwyth.
