Not really a dislike, be aware no TV in the room, which actually is a great idea if you’re looking to get some peace/relax.

Very friendly village pub, with great food. We really enjoyed our stay. Recently refurbished room. Location is great for venturing into the National Park. Thanks to Andrew and the team👍

Thick pillow, and it was quite hot (a small tower fan would be great)

Excellent host Andrew, stayed late, helped with food and the rest, gave us good plan for the following day

What a fantastic find in a popular pub in Ponsticill. The owner, staff and locals couldn't have been more friendly and welcoming: we were making plans to return before we left! Great food and accommodation: go and stay there.

Great location. Lovely pub with a fab host who was really friendly and helpful. Comfy cosy room, extremely clean and tidy place. Nice outside area with a great view of the hills. Food is fabulous. Everyone was friendly helpful and attentive, even though it’s quite a busy place. Chef came out for a few chats, nice guy, happy to do packed lunch and breakfasts for us heading off early and out walking all day. 20mins drive to Pen Y Fan.

This pub had the best hospitality I've ever experienced. Staff and locals were fantastic. Food was exceptional and beds were the best I've slept in for a long time. Thanks to Andrew and his daughter for the warm welcome

The staff we incredibly friendly and welcoming, as were the locals. We were lucky enough to be there during the Wales v Scotland 6 nations match which only added to the fantastic atmosphere in the pub - we even got free portions of sausage and chips after the match finished. Breakfast was delicious and the beds were very comfortable. Overall a fantastic stay and would certainly recommend it - shout out to Andrew and his team!

We couldn’t check in at 5:30 because the boss had the key! We were invited to have a drink while we waited and then got charged!! Even though it says breakfast from 7 when we asked for breakfast at 8 and he said no so had to wait until 8:30- so we pre rendered our breakfast but it didn’t come until 8:45 so we were late to meet the walking group. No tea or coffee in the room The bed was too soft very noisy from music and other guests We didn’t stay the 2nd night

Excellent location for walking the Brecon Beacons, the room was very clean

For the price (£135 for the room), I would have hoped for tea/coffee facilities in the room and breakfast to be included. Breakfast was expensive- £15 for fully cooked. We had toast and cereal plus tea for 2 which cost £15. Small cereal boxes. Paying £135 again I would have hoped for something a bit more up market. A lot of money for a very ordinary breakfast when the room was so expensive.

Very friendly and helpful owner/host. Comfortable, spotless room.

The pub restaurant was not open so had to find an alternative (takeaway which was not great) Although the double room has been recently furnished it is very small, with very limited space around the bed. Had to request a hairdrier. No one at hotel overnight. Not value for money.

The location was good for catching the Brecon Steam Train. Views across the valley. The owners were very friendly.
