When we first walked in it didn't feel that great but it might be that we just landed a day before from a long flight. But after a couple of days everything was very good except for the stairs. But it is expected of a place like this. Most of the stuff get 10 out of 10 but you have the few odd ones with an attitude. It's not the place to blame for it. It's just them. The rest of them were perfect.

What a beautiful hotel with lovely staff who all have a smile and are really helpful. I stayed by myself for work but never felt alone. The superior double room was a great size and the bed more comfortable than mine at home! The breakfast and dinner were both lovely and served very quickly. Would highly recommend this hotel and its beautiful setting

Seven of us and our two dogs came in on the off chance on Sunday and were shown to a large table at the back of the pub. Everyone found something they liked at Sunday lunchtime. There were plenty of vegan and vegetarian options, which was great to see. The sandwiches were delicious, on toasted ciabatta. Skinny fries were nice too, plenty of choice of alcoholic drinks and the tea (decaf was chosen) was served in a lovely teapot. Delicious coffee too. If we're ever back in Welshpool we'll be sure to pop in again. Dave, the duty manager, was so helpful and polite, as were the two ladies who brought the food to the table. A lovely spot.

Room was lovely. The evening meal was disappointing as not everything on the menu was available, the breads provided with the balsamic dip were not suitable. The evening waiting on staff seemed a little inexperienced, however morning staff were friendly and attentive and breakfast was enjoyable.
