Heather & Rob were brilliant hosts. The property was lovely, clean & really well equipped. Lots of personal touches & they even left welcome goodies. Superb all around :)

Proper pub, lovely atmosphere, great food, large selection of local ciders etc. staff were extremely accommodating & kind. Every pub should be like this one. Room was very well done out. Bed very comfortable & spacious. Immaculately clean. Genuinely flawless. Roast dinner is a top draw as as-well as breakfast being right up there. Would/will definitely return

Revolting smell of bedding when we arrived first day.
Cold air and water temperature in the spa,very disappointing in winter ,when people are traveling hoping to relax in a warm spa with romantic partner.
Very high price of food and alcohol.
Polite staff trying to compasate low quality of the hotel with a fake smile.
Beautiful decoration and fire place.
I would not recommend to travel in winter

Fabulous venue.
Fabulous venue. Great for special occasions whether couples or a larger function (and at least two function rooms). Lovely rooms and staff. Good food too. Added options of vineyard tasting tours, cookery courses. Woodland walks. Not the cheapest but you do get what you pay for.

We went for a couple of days to do a workshop at the royal mint. The area is beautiful and I wish we had more time at the hotel and to explore the local sights. The vineyard tour at the hotel looks amazing and our trip to the royal mint was amazing! Definitely recommend.

Beautiful river walk (1 m) from Pontyclun station to Lanelay Hotel (but very hard to find hotel). Pontyclun bit short of dining, but Fallbrook's Bistro was excellent.
Very friendly Llantrisant Folk club at lively Social club in Pontyclun. Also Good if you want Sky / BT Sports.

Rooms were big, clean and modern with all amenities. staff in all areas were friendly and helpful. any requests dealt with immediately. the breakfast had a good selection of cooked food and pastries etc. we had dinner on 2 evenings and every meal was excellent and we did not leave hungry. menus had wine recommendations with each course and were good quality and well priced. views of the countryside from the room were a pleasure to wake up to and open the balcony doors. we combined this trip with a visit to the Royal Mint which was only 10 minute drive from hotel. Can't wait to go back.
I have been stopping here every year for the past 6years around the same time for the autumn internationals it a good standard budget hotel close to railway 20min walk for a 20min train ride to Cardiff meaning I don't have to drive to Cardiff , and they are well accomodating I call up at 21:50 to say that we are returning later than expected and if there was any chance of food and the wait for us and cook a meal for us, what more can you ask for. Défi recommended . Especially for those that don't want to pay ridiculous price .
Rosie was so friendly and welcoming. They couldn't have helped us more with suggesting where to eat locally; suggesting transport options to Hensol castle and other top tips.
The cottage had everything we needed to prepare meals and breakfast. Rosie had left a thoughtful welcome gift of milk and water in the fridge and biscuits and coffee/tea to start us off.
We were cosy and it was very clean. Plenty of parking space too.
The countryside was lovely.
We love this hotel. We have stayed here four times in the last 14 years. It is a beautiful, well maintained period building with spectacular gardens/grounds. One of the earliest parts of the hotel was built in the 10th century. There is a flawless old fireplace in one of the hospitality rooms. And many , many other exquisite genuine historical architectural details.
Every member of staff I encountered at Lanelay Hall were friendly, professional and would go out of their way to help. They are clearly a very well run team and the guest experience was excellent as a result.
The atmosphere was lovely and the decor was beautifully done. It felt like a real boutique hotel experience.
The room was amazing, really spacious, comfortable and clean. The look of the hotel is lovely we had good weather so were able to sit outside and enjoy a drink. The breakfast was really good. The staff were really friendly and couldn't do enough for us.
Setting beside the vineyard is excellent. Hotel is maintained to a high standard. Highlight was the wine-tasting, which was, perhaps surprisingly, the most interesting and informative I've been too (and that includes Europe, the US and S Africa).
Lovely old historical hotel. Very big bedroom with a great bed. Found the hotel to be very tranquil and staff were lovely. Had full welsh breakfast for the two days and it was on of the best we’ve ever had.
The ease of being able to leave car earlier in morning catching train which is short walk away to Cardiff for our annual rugby trip and the fact that the owner is alway helpful and accomodating .
Stunning hotel! Very clean and staff were very attentive - Spa was also really lovely. Breakfast cooked fresh with lots of choices including French toast 😍 Will definitely be returning!
Stunning hotel with an exceptional room which was huge. The surrounding area is also beautiful for walks and taking in the countryside.
Staff were polite and helpful
