Bed and breakfast The Celyn

Forest Coal Pit, Pont Newydd, NP7 7LW, United Kingdom –

Lock in a great price for The Celyn - rated 9.6 by recent guests.

to get started.

The welcome, the family, the location, the breakfast, and not being able to get phone reception! Bliss!

Nicola, United Kingdom

Sarah was a very attentive host with an armoury of local information, as we were looking for somewhere to go in the evening (decided against it though due to the weather that night) Breakfast was very tasty with attention placed on the freshness and local quality of produce. The B&B has a “home away from home” feel, incredible views from all angles of the property and we were made to feel very welcome - a big thank you. We had the master bedroom and wow it was huge, and we’ve never had an en-suite as big to match! Bed was very comfy with pillows to sink into! Lovely little touch of local soap tasters on the pillow too. Look forward to staying again in the future...would definitely recommend but we think we’d rather keep you as our little secret!

Exceptional views around every corner, very friendly and helpful staff/ owner. I would reccommend the Celyn for a romantic visit or a family break away from the busy city. Rooms are outstanding as well as Breakfast. Will definitely be going back! Thanks again

Danielle, United Kingdom

Really nice and clean place, very comfortable, and friendly staff. I loved the location, the hills surrounding the house, made a perfect view for breakfast when there was a blue sky, and so many ideas for hikes and little trips. Thank you to all the staff members :)

The only slight issue for us was you can hear the other guests moving around and snoring at night so ear plugs were useful!
A very warm welcome from Sarah and Colin and baby Will - they were really lovely. Room had absolutely stunning views and the breakfast was delicious - I would highly recommend buying some meat to take away with you. The room was clean and the bed was comfy.

The un-cooked breakfast could have been a bit more exciting, the breakfast they made looked great, but i feel there could have been more options, in terms of the yoghurts and fruits.
Really nice and clean place, very comfortable, and friendly staff. I loved the location, the hills surrounding the house, made a perfect view for breakfast when there was a blue sky, and so many ideas for hikes and little trips. Thank you to all the staff members :)
