Reviews and Ratings
This hotel exceeded my expectations in most areas. The rooms were spacious with great facilities, but the pricing may not fit everyone's budget. The service was excellent, though housekeeping could improve. The location was stunning, perfect for exploring the beautiful countryside, yet strangely far from the local pub. The dining experience was delightful, especially when indulging in Welsh pastries. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything one could need for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is a charming place with beautiful Victorian style fittings and furniture. The rooms are spacious with two bedrooms and a lovely tub, making the stay very comfortable. The location is right in the center of the village, outside the pub, and surrounded by pleasant surroundings. The service is top-notch, especially the housekeeping. However, the dining options are limited, and the facilities could use some upgrades.
The hotel is nestled in a classic old village pub, perfect for days walking in the hills. The rooms offer good facilities and great views, although slightly far away from the pub. The service, while decent, lacks in housekeeping details. Dining options mainly center around pasta, and the location provides a pleasant escape.
