AN EXPERIENCE TAILORED TO YOU

As one of only two bed and breakfasts located within the Craig-y-Nos Country Park, we offer a unique stay near iconic landmarks like Henrhyd Waterfall and the famous Four Waterfalls Walk. We are also a prime base for hikers looking to summit Pen y Fan—the highest peak in South Wales at 886 metres—renowned for its dramatic, tabletop silhouette. Thanks to our zero light pollution, guests at Pentre Riding Stables & Trekking Centre can also enjoy world-class stargazing right from our doorstep. We also offer a quiet, professional retreat for contractors seeking midweek accommodation. With spacious rooms and a peaceful atmosphere, our bed and breakfast provides the perfect environment to rest between shifts while working in the region.

We booked to do a one-hour trek and had a fabulous time. We were a family with two children, ages 5 and 11. The horses were very well cared for, and all were well behaved. Excellent for beginners and those who want to explore more than the arena. Looking forward to visiting again. Thank you!
