There's The Moon And Sixpence at Tintern, in the Wye Valley, and The Goose And Cuckoo about three miles from Llanover, Gwent, with a breathtaking view and a good reputation for real ale - both ancient inns with ancient exotic names. I must digress, however - at the beautiful Breton village of La Cheze ("ville fleurie") there's a little bar, standing opposite the river, which is called (translated from French): "It's Better To Drink Here Than Over There". Good thinking...
