"This place is a real gem. Double room at rear of Inn away from main road, Bed very comfortable - lovely bedding. Bathroom very good/clean - would benefit from somewhere to put down toiletry bags etc. beautiful huge white fluffy towels provided. Shower would also benefit from somewhere to put down toiletries etc.
Restaurant excellent, lovely ambiance, food plentiful and very good although chips a little too crispy.

"It felt like a property that had been reopened after being closed for years.
No attention to detail.
No tv in bedroom.
Vastly overpriced for what it is and provides."

"Very new, lovely hosts absolutely dog friendly, our dog had his own breakfast everyday! It is rural, so sometimes internet glitches, but we were there over a stormy weekend and the electric substation across the road blew up. Power was back on very quickly."

Very clean, newly refurbished pub in a good location with interesting artistic decorations by local artist who owns the property. Good base to explore this part of the Wales/England border. Comfortable room and excellent breakfast. We ate at the pub both nights and evening meal was also very good. Lovely staff. Parking seemed to be no problem, either in pub's very small car park or on roads in village.

Stayed here over a 2 nights and would definitely stay here again if I am in the area.
The staff, landlord and landlady are genuinely the nicest people I have stayed with.
Very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Atmosphere in the pub was lovely and the staff are happy to help in anyway you need.
Rooms were spacious, clean and have everything you need. Beds are comfortable. Breakfast was tasty and was just what was needed to set us up both days.

The best area to stay in Manafon is directly within the village itself, or in one of the surrounding hamlets for a more secluded rural experience.
Manafon village is a small, quiet community in Powys, Wales, known for its picturesque setting amidst rolling hills and farmland. The village centres around St Michael and All Angels Church and a traditional pub, which often serves as a focal point for local life. Accommodation here typically consists of charming guesthouses or self-catering cottages, offering a truly authentic Welsh countryside stay.
For couples seeking a peaceful retreat, staying in or just outside Manafon village is ideal. You'll find lovely walking trails right on your doorstep, offering stunning views of the Montgomeryshire countryside. It's a great spot to unwind, enjoy the natural beauty, and experience the slow pace of rural life.
Families might prefer the flexibility of a self-catering cottage in one of the nearby hamlets, such as Aberhafesp or Bettws Cedewain. These locations offer more space and privacy, often with gardens for children to play in, while still being a short drive from Manafon's amenities and local attractions like the Dulas Valley.
When is the best time to go to Manafon?
The best time to visit Manafon is during the warmer months, specifically from late spring to early autumn, between May and September.
During these months, the weather is generally milder and drier, making it ideal for exploring the Welsh countryside and enjoying outdoor activities. You'll find the landscape at its most verdant, superb for walks along the River Severn or exploring the nearby Montgomery Canal.
Couples looking for a tranquil escape will particularly appreciate Manafon during this period. The longer daylight hours allow for leisurely drives through the scenic Powys region and visits to historic sites like Montgomery Castle, without the chill or dampness of winter.
