“Good value spacious and warm room in lovely stone building.”
Large room with three beds, quiet and comfortable. Beautiful location for walking around in the hills, Sunday market and if you are fortunate enough to book a horse ride. Great local inns.

“We had a lovely stay here.”
Beautiful area lots to do locally. We went horse riding with pentre riding stables up the mountains too which was absolutely incredible. Breakfast is not a cooked breakfast but continental selection brought to our room by the host. Room included fridge, tele, etc. There was a washing bowl to wash up in, not actual kitchen sink but that wasn't a problem. I'd read some reviews about it being noisy there but genuinely we didn't think it was at all, was always dead quiet by 9pm too.

“Passable, customer service could be improved”
Mattress on double bed in family room needs to be replaced. No parking available and had to park in a lay-by across the main road. Breakfast was basic with no jam for the bread and croissant provided. The owner never responded to questions re where to park when no availability even though the establishment advertises that there is free parking at the establishment

I have been to Swansea before a few years ago and love the area. I honestly enjoyed my stay at Pentre Riding Stables. It was clean, had everything I needed, a fridge and microwave that came in handy, the bed was comfortable and the room was spotless. I met the owner and she was very welcoming and made me feel at home. I was even able to take my fur baby with me on my travels and he was allowed to stay. Thank you

“Not to comfortable”
It’s pretty close to the construction walkway, and the family room for four with a little kitchenette was actually quite handy.

“Enjoyable”
Amazing place we really enjoyed our stay, we are looking forward to returning for a mountain hack in the summer. It was my children’s highlight of our trip. Friendly and welcoming with a beautiful location.

“The room was great.”
The room was great. Better than expected. I had an issue with the heating that was my error but was helped to resolve quickly. The family room had a microwave, fridge and dining table which was great. Horse riding is offered too which is nice, I was planning to book it however my plans changed - maybe next time.

The room was spacious and clean, and all the amenities that I requested were provided. Would definitely book again, right opposite Craig y Nos, so we had beautiful walks yippie! I also met the new cleaner a few times, and she was lovely, very helpful and welcoming!!!

Convenient location easy to find. Room well equipped and clean. Ideal for adult guests. I think this accommodation would be a great stopover in the warmer months when more of the local businesses are open.
