Very small tv impossible to watch laing in bed. Biggest problem no hot water.cant have shower before bed. No day shef soup.

We only stayed here for one night to break up the long drive, with a reservation booked. Despite only giving 3 stars, there isn't much to complain about. However, there isn't much to sing about either. The room was fine, I did get a The Shining vibe while walking there though. The shower was awful, hot but no power behind it and the floor was soaked because the curtain was clearly drunk and couldn't do its job properly.

Free WiFi = awesome. We go to the bar for a drink, but are standing around for about 10 minutes because there's no staff around and when they did come, they weren't apologetic, just demanded our order. The restaurant, clearly very popular and the food was 3 stars worthy, chicken was overcooked but drenched with BBQ sauce, totally fine. The chips cooked to perfection. We saw the dessert menu and the ice creams looked amazing!

So we went for it. Such a disappointment, the real thing is nothing like the picture, so don't be fooled! Good for a quick place to stay and would use again for a night's visit (but haven't looked around the area for anything better either) Good luck.

Good rooms, ok food. Stayed for 1 night before hiking into the Brecon Beacons, nice big room and even had a Jacuzzi bath! Had carvery dinner and fry up for breakfast, both were ok especially given the breakfast was included. The owner and staff made up for this as they were very friendly and kind enough to let us leave the car for a couple of days.

Staff were very friendly and accommodating and the breakfast was very nice. It was also included in the price of the stay. Perfect location for walking in the brecon beacons which was the purpose for our stay. Only knocked one star off because it is very dated, although it is well kept and clean! I would reccomend

Great hotel. Lovely lobby. Friendly staff. We stayed for three nights and every night was busy in the restaurant set within the hotel. Free breakfast. Great value for money.

Some nice staff, man carving meat miserable and not pleasant at all, asked for crackling cause I wasn't having pork told me I couldn't have any. Vegetables not to the normal standard and it was very cold there not sure if that was due to all the new restrictions for ventilation
