"A very well presented and convenient hotel for Hay on Wye and the surrounding areas. Staff were friendly and welcoming. The room itself was comfortable and finished to a high standard. Would be perfect for couples or solo travellers wanting to explore the local area. Will definitely be back."

"Tom was very welcoming and his place is delightful. Right in the centre of Knighton, a pretty little cottage with lovely eclectic art. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend- thanks Tom!"

"I was going to visit the Brecon Mountain Railway and I needed somewhere close by to stay for the night. Luckily, I chose the Butchers Arms. The room was lovely and clean and the bed very comfortable. The food was filling and tasty and I had breakfast looking across to the start of the Brecon Beacons. The beer was wonderful especially the Butty Bach (little friend in Welsh). "

"A quaint old fashioned inn. Amenities a bit dated but all functioning. Bath with jets was a plus. Loved the provision of bottled water and little biscuits. Breakfast was a lovely continental affair. Only downside was the winding staircases that made taking luggage up and down difficult."
"Brilliant location and the owners were really helpful and friendly.
Breakfast was fantastic.
Would definitely like to visit again.
Fantastic thank you."
"We had a very pleasant and enjoyable stay in this elegant and historic building. The grounds are well maintained and the highlight is the walled garden with a large variety of fruit trees and a maze that puzzled us for a while! Our dinner was prepared with care and attention and the food was very tasty. A 5* stay in a 5* hotel.."

"We stayed at the farmhouse in Jul/Aug for 11 nights. The house is quite old & rustic, with traditional furniture & fittings.The view from the garden is lovely & peaceful, & there were house martins flying all around. It's about 10 mins drive from Builth Wells, with no immediate neighbours.The house is well equipped & has an open plan kitchen/living area.For cooler months there's a log store for the woodburner & standalone heaters around the property.Some points to note: The garden is enclosed, but a large old shed is accessible within the garden, cordoned off with a line of string. This isn't an issue for older children, but younger children would need to be supervised; there was an exposed staircase up the side and a slight drop-off at ground level alongside part of it. There was also an accessible trough with water in it.The driveway is along a rutted track, which could be difficult for low slung cars. A couple of things which were slight negatives for us, though not things which spoilt the holiday: Not all windows had coverings, incl the 2 ensuites which we covered ourselves at night & when our teenage children were showering.There was no connector between the main dvd player & tv - not an issue in the end, as both tv's had various apps & one had a built-in dvd player, it was just frustrating for a while.More lamps would have been helpful, esp for ease of reading in the evenings.Overall tho, we were happy with the farmhouse & would stay there again."
"Located centrally in the town with excellent parking. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Was nice to sit outside under the beautiful wisteria and enjoy a drink in the evening sun. Brasserie food was excellent. Breakfast was really nice also. A great base for exploring."
"A beautiful hotel in a lovely location. We stayed here for 4 nights in a Superior double room. The room had recently been refurbished. The bathroom was huge and very clean. The room itself was very nice with views across to the Beacons at the rear. Having the DAB radio on Radio3 was a nice touch when we arrived. All the staff we encountered were very friendly and professional. We paid extra for breakfast, and we dined in 2 nights too. Food was very good. Parking was ok but a little limited for the number of rooms. There is on-street parking close by and the Promenade car park is free 6pm-8am.
Note: if you happen to have seen The Hotel Inspector episode from over 18 years ago with Alex Polizzi that features this hotel, please don’t be put off. Time has worked wonders. It is unrecognisable from then. I believe it’s now owned by The Coaching Inn Group. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again."
