If Carlsberg did hotels!
We couldn't have chosen a better place even if we tried. The room was spacious and clean, the food was excellent and the Sarah was welcoming, warm and so friendly. Nothing was too much for her, breakfast was delicious, the cakes we found waiting in the room for us in the evening were to die for. She even fixed the weather for us, so we had glorious sunshine throughout our stay. Amazing! We have already recommended it to friends and we will be going back again and again. I am so pleased we discovered this gem of a place.

Home from home in the Welsh countryside
Fantastic stay at the Acorn Country house. Sarah the owner was amazing made us feel very welcome and gave us really good advise on where to eat locally and even arranged our table. Our room was spotless with a fully equipped kitchen milk and cake provided lovely touch. Cooked breakfast was first class and also available was a Continental selection. Highly recommend and we will be going back. Thank you.

An incredibly relaxing stay
I travel away a lot with my job and I'm accustomed to bland, soulless chain hotels so this was a wonderful change of pace. The surroundings were beautiful and so peaceful. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. I haven't slept that well in years. The breakfast was lovely with a surprisingly good range of options. The icing on the cake was the wildlife. I loved the wide variety of wild birds and, when I asked nicely, the owners allowed me to see their chickens

Amazing, can’t wait to revisit!
Sarah is a wonderful host who greeted us with coffee, Welsh cakes and a warm fire after a very wet journey. She answered all our questions on best places to eat (menus to browse) walking routes (maps to consult) and things to do. Breakfast was superb and plentiful complete with fresh eggs from the resident hens and scones awaited our return on day 2. Hot water bottles were a lovely surprise as the weather was miserable but we will definitely be returning and hopefully experience outdoors in better conditions. Acorn Court is about half a mile from the main road and is very peaceful with just the sounds of birdsong and lambs. We did have a kitchen and although we only made coffee it was fully equipped so you could be completely self catering if you wanted to.

Ten Stars out of Five!
Sarah the hostess was so welcoming and friendly right from the time we arrived. Everything was excellent. House spotlessly clean. Our room was huge with two proper armchairs, TV, fridge and lots of space in the room. Full bathroom with toilet, hand basin, bidet and bath and a separate shower. Wifi spot on. Breakfast was amazing. Fried Welsh breakfast was not greasy or oily as some can be. Apart from the main course, there were cereals, fruit, yogurt, unlimited tea and coffee, juices, croissants - everything!! And the homemade cake every evening in our room when we returned from our travels - wonderful!! The location is excellent. So quiet and peaceful. The sheep and the chickens and the farm dogs are so cute. You feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. I cannot recommend this B & B highly enough. My girlfriend has already recommended it to a couple of her friends and I will be doing the same. Thanks so much Sarah, if in the area again, we will not hesitate in staying with you again. Guaranteed.

simply superb
Could not fault it in any way. A delight. Sarah made us most welcome and provided tea and cake on arrival. The rooms are totally well equipped with all the little extras that most people don't think of. Even a small fridge with fresh milk for tea or coffee. Breakfast was superb. Fresh and generous with many extra offerings like fruits and yogurts as well as full cooked food with a variety of offerings.There were also sample menus from recommended restaurants for the evenings and Sarah offered to make bookings. The place is easy to find and quiet and peaceful. This was a business trip but I hope to return for leisure. Very highly recommended.

Picture perfect.
The property was beautiful. Spotlessly clean and welcomed with a home made cake and cup of tea. Then to top it off the next day there is home made fruit cake on our tea tray in our room. Talk about hospitality plus.

We stayed here when working in the area and were really well looked after. \\\\it's in a lovely quiet spot not too far to walk back from the local pub and just a short drive from Llandridrod Wells. We'll definitely be going back soon.

Top B & B
In most B & Bs you expect a bedroom but at Acorn House you get a suite. Sarah and family are really welcoming, nothing is too much trouble and you can come and go as you would at home. We also benefited from wonderfully generous breakfasts and Sarah was full of advice on where to go locally.
