The Tadross Hotel is a historic Victorian pub in Barry, Wales, with a charming atmosphere and a beautiful garden for guests to enjoy. On site you'll find two bars showing sporting action on a big screen and multiple televisions, plus two pool tables and dart boards to keep you occupied, with live music performances held monthly for a lively evening. Fans of Gavin and Stacey will recognise the building as the Dolphin from the series, where many episodes, including the finale, were filmed. The hotel is handily placed near Barry Docks station, just 0.4 miles away, and within reach of Jackson's Bay Barry Island beach, around 1.2 miles from the door.
