Stayed a year ago and re-booked for this year. Just one night stay, but the service is excellent, and we would like to have a longer stay next time. Our host is very helpful, and the breakfast is just what you need. Our room was comfortable, and the bed is lovely. Might bring the dogs next time to enjoy the countryside.

An amazing place - right location near the mountains and valleys, spic, interior full of character as per the inn name, cheerful staff, good size rooms with amenities, tea and coffee with milk (not milk powder), a shower with superb spray force and priced perfectly. Whether you are a solo traveller or family, it's highly recommended if you are in Sennybridge.

We stayed for only one night in August 2016 as a stopgap to the north of wales. But enjoyed our stay there tremendously. Mainly due to our hostess Rose, hospitality which added to all Altybrain has to offer in its beautiful, serene and tranquil surroundings.

We booked for 3 nights B and B from 28th May. The location was easy to find and we had a choice of two rooms. Both were large double bedrooms with duel aspect views over the local area.

Our room was spotlessly clean as was the bathroom. The later had a stand alone bath with taps and shower head on a...

This hotel is perfectly situated for accessing the beautiful Brecon Beacons. It is a well appointed hotel and has its own Spa. The food is excellent and plentiful, the staff are welcoming and friendly. It has a large open air car park and parking is free. If you are not staying at the hotel but want to go somewhere that provides an excellent meal you should try the bar or restaurant.

We had a fantastic stay at the butchers arms.
They were very friendly and helpful. We had a problem with another hotel and Andrew and his team couldn’t do enough for us. What a lovely place to stay.
Very clean place. Bed was super comfy had a fantastic nights sleep.
We will definitely stay again if in the area. Thank you Andrew and all the team for looking after us. 😊😊

For most visitors, the best area to stay in Defynnog is within the village itself, or in the immediate surrounding countryside for a tranquil retreat.
Defynnog village offers a central point for exploring the Brecon Beacons. It's a small, traditional Welsh village with a historic church and a few local amenities. Staying here means you're right in the heart of the community, with easy access to walking routes directly from your doorstep.
Couples looking for a peaceful escape will appreciate the many holiday cottages and guesthouses scattered throughout the Defynnog valley. These often provide stunning views of the Usk Valley and the surrounding hills, offering a quiet base for exploring the national park. You'll find many properties with private gardens and easy access to footpaths, superb for enjoying the natural beauty of the area.
Families often find the countryside just outside the village ideal. Many larger self-catering properties are available, providing space for children to play and direct access to outdoor activities like cycling and hiking.
