Pros:

Mark and Karen were great hosts. Really friendly, happy to help (above and beyond our expectations), knowledgeable about the area and history of the building.
The breakfasts were outstanding and the homebaked treats in the lounge were a lovely extra.
A really relaxing stay with thre right combination of luxury and home comforts. Ideally placed for exploring the town, nearby countryside or the Brecon beacons.

Pros:

What a lovely night away. Mark and Karen were brilliant hosts. Clean rooms with all the amenities you need. Great array of drinks and snacks available. Soft towels and comfy beds. Delicious breakfast cooked by Karen. All the ingredients were excellent quality and cooked excellently. A perfect little base for a weekend in Wales. We enjoyed walking Pen Y fan. Mark recommended a local pub for a drink in the evening and there was some live music going on. Karen even gave us some pastries to enjoy on our walk.
