Top Brecon Mountain Railway Hotel Reviews

James Place @ Dowlais

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was absolutely lovely, very modern and spotlessly clean throughout. Everything was well presented and made for a really comfortable stay. We did have a slight issue with the TV remote, so we weren’t really able to watch TV, but this wasn’t a big issue for us and didn’t affect our stay. Overall, a great apartment and we would definitely stay again. Highly recommend!"

The Butchers Arms

10/10 Excellent

"Welsh hospitality at its cheery finest. Perfect location for Pen y fan and the rest of the Brecons."

Charming Cottage w/ Valley Views & BBQ Hut

8/10 Good

"Really fantastic and well furnished cottage. The location is great with 2 pubs within a 3 minute walk. The BBQ hut and outdoor seating is perfect and the kitchen had basics available like fruit teas, oil, salt, pepper ect. The only reason for no 5 stars is the bed in the second bedroom is a small double/large single and not big enough for 2 adults. There is also no gate on the front garden seating area which meets directly to the road, so inappropriate for dogs. I would however stay again but only as a couple."
