Guest Reviews

• Ray (7/5): -
• Donna (10/5): Lovely Brecon Break - Very friendly welcome and pre arrival communications.Really sweet bedroom, good size and good quality furniture. Comfortable bed with chairs and little tables. Very spacious ensuite with lots of natural light through a skylight. Breakfast was amazing, perfectly cooked.
• Bell (10/5): -
• john (9/5): -
• gaynor (5/5): Wouldn’t say it was worth money - Staff friendly Clean beds Corridors, gardens and communal areas poor. Breakfast just ok
• Sansho_UK (9/5): 大満足です - オーナーの応対が素晴らしく、とても気持ちよく滞在できました。家族3人で宿泊しましたが、設備として過不足なく快適に過ごせました（ダブルベッド×1、シングルベッド×2）。朝食もフルウェルシュブレックファーストがボリューム満点で、散策に必要なエネルギーが十分に補給できるものでした。 お湯の量が少し限られているのか、3人連続でシャワーを浴びたところ3人目は少し冷たかったとのことです。あと上階の足音がたまに気になることはありました。

• ashley (8/5): -
• Michael (7/5): Expensive but clean. There was a selection of cereals and cooked breakfast available 08.00 - 09.00. - Room was clean. Off street parking and lounge available. Breakfast room could do with an upgrade, others thought it was cold. I appreciate its an old building though. It was expensive however most B&Bs in Brecon appear to be the same.

• Denise (8/5): Very well run, comfortable Guest House with a nice pub handy for dinner. Close to Brecon town. - This is a very professionally run family business. Generous breakfast with choices. We loved our top floor room which had a plug in heater and also fan for summer so you could control the temperature of the room. Parking is on site. Guest house is very close to Brecon town. Some people might walk in - not us! Also there is probably a bus. There was a small, friendly pub just a few doors up the road and we ate there both nights. We highly recommend Old Castle Farm Guest House and would stay there again. We liked everything about this guest house.
