Dober zajtrk, prijazno osebje, zasebno parkirišče.
Great value basic and friendly b&b with good breakfast. Private parking, good for motor cycles.
Clean and comfortable rooms Good breakfast served and plenty of it. Nice thick bacon and tasty sausages, perfectly cooked eggs as requested. Rooms had everything we needed, fridge, fan, heater, please of electric points and mirrors. Great taxi service for 8 into town £4.50
Fine for myself, but was about 10-15 mins walk into town
The staff are so friendly, welcoming, helpful and attentive. The location was great, walking distance to town. Pubs, chipshop, ice-cream shop, bus stops all nearby. Our room was plenty big enough for us two with lots of drawers and cupboard space. The bed was comfortable. The shower was good. Tea, coffee, milk and a kettle available in the room. Breakfast was lovely, fruit juice, tea or coffee, cereals, toast and several options for a hot breakfast, we had the full Welsh for our three day stay, it was very good. Several parking spaces around the back of the property.
Close to town
It was quaint. Had keys to lock doors not electronic keys, I liked that
A lovely stop-over break on out way down to Tenby. A lovely walk into Brecon. Breakfasts were very good. Rooms comfortable. The Drovers just up the road for fabulous food and drink.
Full Welsh breakfast was excellent, the owner was very nice and helpful. The room was way beyond expectation as described wood-beamed ceilings, clean, bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was clean and serviceable. Location was not great but manageable.
Room clean and well equipped, lovely comfy sleep good mattress and pillows, very welcoming and accommodating staff Good selection of breakfast choices. Would definitely stay here again 😄
Good quality ingredients for Welsh breakfast but unfortunately not too our taste palettes too dry and overcooked, saying that boiled n poached eggs perfect. Parking at back of house needs more lights and not keen on having to be seated by staff for eating . More care with dusting required Great stay , keep up the hard work
Excellent breakfast and the staff are super friendly! We felt accommodated for at every step.
The location of the property was excellent and only a short walk into town. We were lucky enough to get a spot to park out the front, even though there is parking at the rear of the property. The staff were extremely friendly and the breakfasts were amazing.
We found the beds a little on the soft side, but this is a personal preference.
We'd reserved an attic room, but because of the heat they very kindly relocated us to a lower floor and much more spacious room. Breakfast was good but with limited choices. Everything seemed very clean.
No complaints, really. The lounge is a bit run-down but we didn't need to use it.
breakfast excellent - though a bit early on a Saturday and Sunday. Room lovely - large and spotless
Nothing really - all good
The owners were very welcoming and hospitable. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated and clean.
Absolutely nothing
Fab hotel
Friendly hosts, comfortable beds, and great location for us to get the bus to climb pen y fan.
Die Lage, des Hauses war für uns perfekt. Von hier aus kamen wir zu Fuss schnell ins Städtchen. Die Bushaltestell war grad auch in der Nähe.
Nous avons passé 3 nuits dans cet hôtel familial. Hôtes charmants et attentionnés. Hôtel très bien situé pour découvrir le secteur. Petit déjeuner copieux, parfait pour démarrer la journée.
Personnellement, nous préférons les couchages fermes mais ceux qui aiment les couchages moelleux y trouveront leur compte.
We enjoyed our stay ,staff very helpful and friendly
Bequeme Betten. Gutes Frühstück mit einzeln frisch zubereitetem Teil (full welsh breakfast und andere Varianten auf Karte auswählbar). Cerealien, Milch, mehrere Teesorten, Säfte, Toast, Marmelade, Butter, Joghurt. Individuelle Wünsche werden aufmerksam berücksichtigt. Parkplatz hinterm Haus mit Zugang durch Garten. Mitarbeiter sehr zuvorkommend.
Keine Croissants oder Obst beim Frühstück. Enges verwinkeltes Farm Haus ohne Aufzug.
We were greeted by Adora who was really friendly, helpful and inviting. She gave us useful local information.
Unfortunately it was not very clean around the rear entrance and the eating area. Needs attention.
Breakfasts Good, Adequate selection. Room comfortable and roomy. Shower good hot water quick.
Nothing to dislike.
Breakfast was fab ! Staff very helpful
It is overall in need of some TLC - everything old and alot of stuff everywhere. Has a musty, greasy smell
De locatie
Niet schoon (vies) Het rook niet fris
Everything in order. Room properly made. Area is quiet. Goos hearty breakfast. Good hosts. Nothing to complain about.
The location is good, short walk into Brecon and also next to the bus stop.
There was an unpleasant smell in the hallways. The blind on the attic window keeps no light out so it was light until 10pm and from 5am. A blackout blind or curtain would be good. Furnishings are dated and a bit threadbare.
Rooms, breakfast, location, parking for motorcycles.
Staff were not very helpful with local knowledge, buses places to eat etc.
Kamer, badkamer en ontbijt waren in orde maar dat is het zowat.
Ik hou wel van oude gebouwen om te verblijven maar dan mogen ze wel een beetje gerestaureerd zijn, wat hier niet echt het geval was. De verwelkoming was ook allesbehalve. Ik belde aan de voordeur en toen die openging was mijn begroeting: “Naam?”. “Dit is je sleutel, eerste kamer rechts bovenaan de trap en ontbijt is om 8u00, 8u20 en 8u50. Nog vragen? Neen, have a good stay.” Dan voel je jezelf een nummer op een ouderwetse plaats langs een drukke baan. Daar zien ze me nooit meer terug. Normaal ben ik nooit zo cru over een verblijfplaats, dit is mijn allereerste uitzondering.
The location and size of the rooms and breakfast were all great!
The quantity of shampoos and soaps were limited in the room.
Great welcome , allowed our group to use garage to lock up bikes.Great breakfast .all at a great price
Decor is a little dated.
Breakfast.
The weather.
Staff were very welcoming and made us feel supported. We were in the downstairs room, which did mean we heard everybody who used the front door and people talking directly outside, but the breakfast made up for this. Twin beds were very comfortable. Private car park was a bonus.
Not the house fault, but it was further than expected from town, so we did have to use the car more than expected.
I had the attic room, it was a really lovely clean room, with a lovely comfy bed. I stayed 2 night and found it to be great value for money as breakfast was included. Lovely hosts, really polite and attentive.
Great room and lovely hosts. Perfect for what we needed with parking and close access to the town. Breakfast was great
Breakfast and check out was a little early for a sunday morning but still very good
Nice little B&B, we had a lovely stay. Room was a little rustic, but clean and tidy and loads of room for a family of four (double bed and two singles). Loads of good points, our hosts were attentive, polite and treated us really well. Breakfast was great, as others have said, nice options, toast, cereals, porridge, juices, fresh coffee and a cooked breakfast if you wanted it (with a really nice premium sausage, which is rare as they are usually the cheap ones elsewhere). There were leaflets and information on the table in the hall, which was helpful for finding out more about what was available in the area. Close to the town too, short walk to the centre and parking was easy to find. Overall, we were really pleased with our stay and would definitely recommend!
Couple of small niggles - our bathroom was ok, but could have done with an air freshener as we could smell drains, perhaps just the side we were on (it was clean though). The house is very creaky, so you can hear people moving around early in the morning/late at night and their alarms going off etc. Not a huge issue and obviously nothing anyone can do about it, but something to bear in mind if you are a light sleeper (bring earplugs)!
Good value accommodation. Pleasant and polite staff. Great breakfast. Private carpark good for motorcycles.
For the price - nothing to dislike.
Staff were very friendly, helpful, room was clean, breakfast was adequate
Scrambled eggs that were just chopped up boiled eggs. Property is a little tired & out of sorts
It is in Brecon. It had a room available at fairly short notice for a half-term holiday week. It is clean. The greeting from the host made us feel welcome.
Breakfast was poor! Property is very dated and although clean it is dingy and gloomy. It is very basic and over-priced. It was the worst breakfast I have had at a B&B! No healthy options. Undercooked and greasy. Plastic porridge pots (with sugar and golden syrup added)no plain porridge ( as a diabetic I cannot eat things with added sugar). Yogurt was muller fruit corner, full of sugar! No fruit or fruit salad. Veggie sausages were undercooked (and I think microwaved). The pale undercooked hash brown was soaked in oil. I think it all must all have been cooked on too low a heat as it was all greasy and under-done. Very disappointing.
Lovely old building with character.
the area was lovely, the staff were exceptional and everything was perfect
nothing !
Very friendly welcome and pre arrival communications.Really sweet bedroom, good size and good quality furniture. Comfortable bed with chairs and little tables. Very spacious ensuite with lots of natural light through a skylight. Breakfast was amazing, perfectly cooked.
Staff friendly Clean beds
Corridors, gardens and communal areas poor. Breakfast just ok
オーナーの応対が素晴らしく、とても気持ちよく滞在できました。家族3人で宿泊しましたが、設備として過不足なく快適に過ごせました(ダブルベッド×1、シングルベッド×2)。朝食もフルウェルシュブレックファーストがボリューム満点で、散策に必要なエネルギーが十分に補給できるものでした。
お湯の量が少し限られているのか、3人連続でシャワーを浴びたところ3人目は少し冷たかったとのことです。あと上階の足音がたまに気になることはありました。
Room was clean. Off street parking and lounge available.
Breakfast room could do with an upgrade, others thought it was cold. I appreciate its an old building though. It was expensive however most B&Bs in Brecon appear to be the same.
Great value traditional B&B. Hosts very freindly and helpful, rooms good, breakfast excellent. Recommend to others wanting to stay in Brecon
Friendly staff very welcoming, breakfast great.
Everything
Shower pressure wasn't brilliant. But adequate.
The room was excellent lovely and clean it also had all the things you would expect and more. The breakfast was absolutely fantastic we only chose the full Welsh breakfast but there was a lot more we could have had. Food was hot and well presented and the food itself was really worth looking forward to. Really good internet and tv was nice and big.
Nothing at all
Comfortable, clean and tidy room. Great breakfast. Staff very welcoming and helpful. Parking on site.
Owner and staff were friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. The room and bathroom were a good size. Bed was comfortable. Good breakfast.
The bedside lamps were quite dusty (could see the dust when switched on)
Lovely clean room
Nice location, good car park from a B&B and good breakfast
N/a
- veilige parking - pub vlakbij voor het avondeten - propere kamer - goed bed en douche
Het interieur oogt wat gedateerd, genre de bomma.
The host David was so kind . The place is comfy and clean. Lovely breakfast served by David. Will recommend it 100%
Breakfast was lovely. Owner was very pleasant and helpful. Easy to speak to
No hot water at first but sorted within minutes
Phenomenal breakfast, offering lots of Gluten-free options including toast and cereal. Spacious family room. Kids were happy to have their own single beds. Everything you could need in the room, kettle with lots of supplies, hair dryer, fan, mini toiletries. A couple of different mirrors. Lots of plug sockets including USB in case you forgot a plug. Friendly staff, great customer service.
Nothing
Location
Terribly dated
The owners. Location to town. Lovely big room.
The mattress!
Excellent spacious room and offstreet parking. The host was very helpful, would stay again.
Not much really
Location was excellent and sausages at breakfast were delicious.
Seemed pricey for a shared room in roof space. Could do with some modernisation.
A warm welcome and lovely breakfast
About a 15 minute walk from the town centre
breakfast was excellent room was great will be staying again car around the back little difficulty finding but otherwise great
all good

Nothing.
The whole place was bigger and better than I would have expected and very clean throughout
