Séjour fantastique, si nous le pouvions, nous reviendrions !
Rien. Il n'y a rien à ne pas apprécier, tout est d'un luxe évident, sans prétention, un écrin.
Magnifique chambre avec vue et charme à l'anglaise, nous aurions adoré y rester plus longtemps ! Copieux et bon petit déjeuner. Situé à proximité du centre de Corwen, accessible en bus.
very clean and comfortable, excellent breakfast
This was our 3rd visit there and its fantastic, the views from the family room are lovely!! The staff are lovely, its very clean. We will be booking again
Waren met 3 volwassenen op doorreis dus maar 1 nacht gebleven. Gezellige ruime kamer met aansluitend een eigen badkamer met bad/douche en separaat toilet. Aardige eigenaresse die ons vriendelijk ontving en de volgende ochtend een lekker ontbijt serveerde.
Niets. Klein aandachtspuntje bij arriveren, het is een steile oprit naar de B&B.
The breakfast was lovely and such a stunning location. The decor suited the old victorian house. Staff where very nice and friendly to my dog.
The bathroom toilet was leaking water the seal was loose and everytime you flushed you had to put toilet paper down so the floor wasnt wet. The bedroom had a slight odour of dog wee.
Unser Familienzimmer war sehr gemütlich und geschmackvoll eingerichtet und zugleich eine kleine Zeitreise.
This is such a gem of a place! Lovely well maintained guest house. The beds are comfy, spacious and clean with a good shower (over a bath so you have a choice). We were on tge 2nd floor in an attic room which was spacious. No air con so if considering a stay in hot weather this may be an issue for some. Breakfast was fantastic and we had ample tea coffee milk and biscuits which were replenished daily. Ellie gets a special mention as she was a wonderful friendly lady who made us very welcome. Ample free parking. Very close to the train station. Great views! Will be back soon!
Accogliente, curato, silenzioso quello che speri visitando la regione. Decisamente sopra lo standard ma con un apprezzabile occhio alla tradizione. Personale gentile e disponibile. Wendy la proprietaria è di una cortesia e gentilezza uniche. Spero di poter ritornare presto. Welcoming, well-maintained, and quiet—exactly what you hope for when visiting the region. Definitely above average, yet with a welcome nod to tradition. The staff are kind and helpful. Wendy, the owner, is exceptionally courteous and kind. I hope to return soon.
Beautiful location. Wendy was lovely and very accommodating. The room was beautifuly decorated and very clean. Wonderful breakfast. Loved seeing the little steam train go past. Would love to stay again sometime.

Location, although access is a bit tricky. Plenty of parking
Sharp turn and steep hill into the property
Very nice room, breakfast and service. We really enjoyed our stay
Nothing - very good
Nice and characterful room. Lots of choice for breakfast. Wendy was friendly.
Breakfast was lovely and prepared earlier than normal at our request, as we had an early morning excursion!
Friendly and helpful hosts. Beautiful place.
The location , the decor , the staff were lovely and very helpful , Breakfast was plentiful and lovely .

Hjælpsom vært og lækker morgenmad, der kan vælges fra menukort.
Lidt slidt og gammeldags sted men ok til en enkelt overnatning
Everything! Our stay was amazing! The interior design of this place is stunning. The owners put a lot of effort into furnishing it, and you can feel that in every corner. Breakfast was fresh, varied, and healthy - the best we had on our 10-day trip. I regret that we stayed only for one night, as it is a little far from the main hiking destinations. If I could make my bookings again, I would rather spend an additional 30 minutes a day in the car than sleep in much worse, more expensive places closer by.
The views, friendly and helpful staff.
Ein toller Blick vom Frühstücksraum aus, das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet!
Eine außergewöhnliche Unterkunft mit perfekten Gastgebern. Die Zimmer sind sehr geschmackvoll ausgestattet. Das Frühstück, welches es in verschiedenen Varianten gibt, wird frisch zubereitet. Wir hatten einen perfekten, unvergesslichen Aufenthalt und kommen gerne wieder.
Very traditional well equipped comfortable place
Excellent location, Wendy was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good.

Redelijke ontvangst, ruime kamer met mooi zicht, zeer goed bed,kalme omgeving,uitstekend buffet
moeilijke oprit hotel voor parking
Great country view. Lovely old charm. Loved there was a shower mat so you did not slip climbing into the bath to shower. Wendy the host was a source of great information about the area and what to do.
It was tricky to turn into from one direction but easy enough to go down the road and turn around. There was parking right by the door.
Great location with amazing views... Wonderfully quaint historic building with many original features. Attentive, owners offering a wonderful friendly service. Five stars all the way...job well done.
This was our third stay at Bron y Graig and it was as excellent as always.

Utterly beautiful guest house in an original Victorian building that was decorated throughout in William Morris style. Landlady was lovely and extremely accommodating. Breakfast was great, made with all local produce. I would 100% recommend Bron Y Craig to anyone looking for a quiet retreat in beautiful surroundings 😊
Absolutely nothing
We had an absolutely wonderful stay. The place is charming, spotless and very comfortable, with a lovely atmosphere that makes you feel relaxed straight away. The location is beautiful and peaceful, perfect for a quiet getaway. The highlight of our stay was the amazing owner, Wendy. She is truly a wonderful person – warm, kind and incredibly welcoming. She goes above and beyond to make sure guests feel comfortable and looked after. From the moment we arrived we felt at home thanks to her kindness and hospitality. You can really see how much care and heart Wendy puts into this place. Everything is thoughtfully prepared and the whole experience felt special. We would highly recommend staying here and would love to come back again in the future.
Nothing at all – everything was perfect.
Breakfast was lovely and catered for gluten free which was great to see for myself . Greeted well and shown to room . Was told to ask if needed anything . Very pleasent staff and clean throughout .
Lovely decor and good breakfast. Very welcoming and spotlessly clean room.
Very warm welcome and relaxed atmosphere.Friendly staff and nice to have a Welsh member to chat to.Breakfast was very well served and a good choice well cooked.
Difficult for one person to walk up and down the steep stairs to the room(greatful for help with suitcase).
This is a gorgeous building beautifully presented. And Wendy could not have been more lovely or helpful.
Beautiful place!

Love the property as a wow as soon as I walked in. Fabulous features. My puppy Link was made very welcome with treats and a sausage breakfast. Wendy the host was very welcoming.
Nothing. It was amazing.
Excellent as always.

I have to say "Bron-Y-Graig" such a lovely place to stay for a few nights. Everywhere inside is super clean. My bedroom was just awesome. Super comfortable bed, awesome shower 🤩. The breakfast lounge is something eals. It over looks onto the river Dee and all the way through the valley. You will not be disappointed with you're breakfast either. Here's the best bit for me. Only 3.7 miles away is a place called Wren DDu Quarry that's where I was going to ride my enduro bike. So Bron-Y-Graig makes the perfect stay over. I highly recommend Bron-Y-Graig to anyone. Thank you very much Nic & Wendy I will be booking up again very shortly. There's so much more riding to do at Wren ddu quarry.
Good breakfast and charming historic building.
The bathroom and toilet had questionable functionality, room carpet could use replacement.
Comfortable well appointed room, good breakfast. Helpful and pleasant staff
Lovely host, beautiful view from our cozy room and an amazing breakfast. Thank you for having us 😊
Lovely location and breakfast had gluten free options which was perfect for my partner.
Nothing to dislike
Struttura molto bella, stile caratteristico della zona. Ottima accoglienza della proprietaria. Colazione ricca, preparata sul momento dal cuoco.
Nulla da segnalare.
Fantastic stay, the place is lovely and clean and the staff was excellent Bron-Y-Graig is in a great location and has amazing views
So peaceful and very clean.
excellent breakfast and even a sausage for our dog
We liked everything
Very comfortable, lovely relaxing gardens and tastefully decorated throughout
😁👍
It was positioned in a beautiful location. The property is a beautiful mid Victorian building and has been sympathetically maintained with lots of William Morris, and Victorian furniture. The very special reason this is a great place to stay, is purely due to Wendy and Nic. They provide a friendly atmosphere and the breakfast is fantastic, with beautifully sourced organic ingredients. They are very Dog friendly and greeted our two with enthusiasm, making them feel welcomed. Lesley and I will definitely be coming back.
Absolutely nothing
Excellent place to stay, and we had a warm welcome. Would recommend.
Great
The delicious breakfast with lovely service.
Good options at breakfast. Lovely grounds
Guest house meravigliosa in perfetto stile British del fine ottocento; una chicca. Tutto perfetto compresa la colazione. Merita una sosta.
Niente.
Really nice place and conveniently located for the town. Not much choice of eateries in the town though.
Cosy room, excellent breakfast
Although not a problem for me, the driveway is quite steep and could be off putting for less confident drivers especially in poor weather.
Large bed and large room, tasty breakfast good cook and view.
Poor welcome for arriving early, bedroom window permanantly open so room full of bugs, see through curtains not blackout, parking on an extremely steep hill and one way drive risky and difficult, creaky landing noisy wakes you when people coming in and out of rooms. No bathmat for when getting out shower, had to use a hand towel.
Very nice hosts. We had the bedroom at the top of the stairs, with very nice view and it was cool despite it being warm out due to good breeze, good breakfast and Wendy packed a lunch for us for 4.5 pounds. Good bicycle storage. The inn is up a really steep pitch - hard on a bike but it gives the view of the valley. Interesting hosts who also host writing conferences here, lots of cool books in the lounge and hallway.
If you don’t like Victorian-era wall paper this probably is not your best choice; very floral motif in the house.
Hosts Nic and Wendy were very pleasant and helpful. Room was spotless and the included breakfast was excellent.
Nothing that we can think of.
Great room with a lovely cooked breakfast.. dog friendly which is a big bonus .. lovely terraced garden .. has a small bar in the lounge downstairs which unfortunately we only noticed when we left .. Will use again
Nothing
Lovely rooms, great views and spotlessly clean. Friendly staff that were very helpful.
Older building so creaked a bit & could hear people moving upstairs. Would be nice to have fridge in the room.
Fabulous hotel with wonderful William Morris wallpaper and tasteful decor. Our room– room 2, was enormous, with a gigantic, very comfy bed, a wonderful view across the valley, including the railway, and a large victorian style bathroom with a standalone bath with shower over. An excellent breakfast was included in the very reasonable price and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and stay again.
Lovely clean house, interesting decor which is really nice. Spacious bedroom. Good breakfast. We could leave car parked when we went for our hike.
If you like a firm/hard bed then you’ll be fine but we found it uncomfortable, combined with light curtains it wasn’t the best nights sleep.
Loved the hotel quirky and different it was very personal . The breakfast was really good enjoyed it and cant fault it .
The hotel was in a place where taxis don't normally go to to go to the town for a meal n back , we got sorted in the end thanks to the taxi company but otherwise we would of been left stranded and n9t being able to venture.
I’m not able to manage walking up hills so I would not be able to walk out anywhere as the drive is so very steep. I think it would be good to mention this when people consider booking
The very steep driveway. I realise it’s not something the owners can change
Beautiful home and great breakfast!
Lovely building and rooms. Bed not so comfy.
Good directions sent before our arrival Large room with a large comfortable bed and spacious en-suite bathroom. Very clean Tea and coffee available in the room Excellent breakfast

location and facilities
parking was tight, brakfast took half hour to be served but was nice
Prachtige, typisch Engels ingerichte familiekamer en een mooie tuin om met een kop koffie te genieten van het uitzicht. Heerlijk ontbijt, mooie omgeving, lieve gastvrouw.
La chambre était proprette et typique des guest houses. Le breakfast servi à l'ancienne est un retour dans le passé savoureux. On se croirait dans Miss marple.
Pas très pratique au niveau du parking. Ma fiat 500 n'a pas pu monter la pente raide conduisant au parking du guest house. Vraiment très raide la pente. Mais il y a de la place à corwen. La ville est déserte au mois d'août.
