The Plough and Harrow
The Plough and Harrow Review
A short drive from Nash Point is this friendly local pub, on the edge of the tiny cliff-top village of Monknash. The food is delicious and unfussy, mostly pub classics like steaks and grilled fish. Everything is served in a cozy dining room with a fireplace and a hopeful-looking dog. There's a small but decent wine list, and an even better selection of real ales. This place is popular, so call ahead or be prepared to wait.

I realized that my other ongoing report ("UK TR, so far)" was now misnamed....so I am finishing here. I started it on the 2nd (or so) day of our trip, but now we have been at home for several days.
