Friendly Staff. Excellent Food. Location.

Room's need updating.

Very accommodating staff, and the landlady tried very hard to please us, and make us welcome. Loved the food too.

Nothing really.

It was clean and the owner and staff were friendly. The location is fantastic, with wonderful views and great walks on the doorstep. The breakfast was good, would be better with quality local produce.

It's shabby. The whole place needs at least decorating if not updating. Gutters needed clearing as they over flowed and dripped constantly onto the dining room roof. The ensuite shower was a dribble and could have been a foot larger.

I liked the friendliness of the staff, the bed was very comfortable, the room was clean and breakfast was very good for the price, and the views were amazing of the surrounding mountainous countryside!

Friendly, courteous.

Only stayed here for one night as my daughter was visiting Aberystwyth University which was around twenty minutes away. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom wasn't very big and the toliet uses a saniflow system which was bit noisey when flushed. Room had a tv and tea/coffee making facilities. The price included a full english breakfast which was very nice. This hotel would be ideal for people that enjoy hiking or mountain biking.

The staff, the setting and the breakfast.

My son and myself were revisiting Aberystwyth where he went to Univeristy. While he was there, my husband died, so this was a poignant return. The setting of the hotel is lovely, and the family and the members of the local community were very welcoming. It is a great area for walking as well as being close to attractions. We were not short of things to do even when it rained. The attractions included the Red Kite centre, the silver mine, the Devil's Bridge and the Devil's cauldron, and, of course, Aberystwyth, with access to the beach, sea, Constitution hill and other attractions. The food at the hotel was home cooked, well presented and delicious with a choice of traditional Welsh dishes. The service was excellent with friendly staff from the village. The dining room looks out over the mountains and the view was really nice when having breakfast. The room was pleasant with tea and coffee available in the room, TV, and en-suite facilities

room was clean but decor could do with a freshen up

The friendleyness of the owners, the view from our room was fabulous room 5,the breakfasts were very substantial,

when the hotel was fuller on the friday night the shower became cold after 1 shower on the saturday morning.forgot to mention to owner as we were leaving

the staff were so helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble also the sound of running water from the river at the bottom of the garden was so relaxing i had no trouble sleeping

The site was stunning,the staff were pleasant and helpful,the food was good.

Nothing, I would stay there again.

Helpful and friendly staff, excellent breakfast and location. within easy reach of the coast, No complaints at all, in fact recommends to friends, who are staying this week

Lovely welcome into what seemed like the family home, with all members performing various functions. Outside condition, car park and approach, was 'dowdy'; with minimal attention could have been very attractive. Garden superb but some breakages needed clearing. 200ft drop to cascade impressive. Beautiful view of hills from bedroom and public rooms. Garden aspect beautiful. Lounge needed a 'tidy'. Limited menu available for us, but every attempt made to supply our requests. No tea-pot at breakfast - did NOT impress my lady-friend! We realise they have had complete re-wiring and refurbishment but after 6 years some smaller niceties could have been improved. Nonetheless an appreciated stay and convenient for our holiday.

The location, friendlieness and helpfulness of the staff and the food was excellent.

The setting of the hotel is splendid. It has a ever tantalising view from the dining room over to Erw Barfau Hill and from the end of the garden you can peer over the fence down into the 200ft chasm & waterfalls of the River Rheidol. It is very handy for a short trip northwards to the little visited Nant-y-Moch reservoir, southwards to Devil's Bridge and the pleasant walks in Hafod Estate. I was really pleased I did not stay in Aberystwyth with its traffic & lack of convenient parking.

Quiet, easy to find, spectacular countryside on doorstep, traditional ambience, unpretentious but adequate, bar is the pub local, restaurant if you want it, mammoth breakfast to set you up for the day, good value.

Good location. Not expensive

Menu consisted of bought-in food at fine-dining prices. Neglected property. Could be lovely with a little TLC

Great rural location, friendly staff.

Requires more ventilation on 1st floor, smell of old paint.
