The Blacksmiths Arms, Llanmaes, Llantwit Major

Visited 18/06/26 Cask here was TT LL, Proper Job and Wye Valley Butty Bach. Keg offering of Inch's, original SB, Amstel, Carling, Moretti, Murphy's Irish stout, Neck Oil, Cruz, John Smiths, Guinness. Long rectangular pub with an attractive paved patio area out the front with picnic style furniture. Inside the front part it is bare boarded with regular tables and chairs and the bar counter a right-angled affair with tall stool seating at both sides on the right-hand side in a stone tiled section. Up a couple of steps at the rear is another bare boarded area at the front becoming carpeted at the rear and a densely packed set of regular tables and chairs in what feels like a pine version of a baronial dining hall. Just before the steps on the left-hand side is a drinking ledge served by tall stools. The inside space in the front part is broken up by a few stone pillars. All told a decent venue, and the TT LL was certainly well kept.
