We called into the Drovers for a drink in the morning, before we went for a walk. There was a lot of snow around the week we were in the area and after a shortish walk of an hour or so we decided to go back for tea and scones which we had noticed earlier. We were very impressed with... More

It was my second stay at Drover's rest while on cycling break with friends. Once again we had a wonderful time, place is very chilled and homely. Peter and staff are very friendly, accommodating and relaxed. And food was divine! A rarity in a deep Wales! Highly recommended!

Just returned from a wonderful weekend at the Drovers Rest. We enjoyed all our meals there which were excellent and all the food is locally sourced. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Overall we had a fantastic time and would highly recommend a visit.

We were staying in the area and this place was recommended for a good Sunday lunch. Although when we arrived there were no other customers, we had to wait about half an hour between the starter and the main course. We wouldn't have minded this as much if the temperature of the room had been a little warmer. We would... More

We have stopped here for something to eat on several occasions and are never disappointed. Lovely fresh home made food in pleasant surroundings. The home made puddings are especially delicious and one is never enough.

We stopped in LLanwrtyd Wells and chose The Drovers Rest, as it looked a very nice place. We were not disappointed, the lunch was superb as was the... More

This is an absolute must for the lover of up market fine food. We eat here every time we visit Llanwrtyd if we can. A booking made a week or two before the visit is highly advisable. So far we have not had a single course for which we would not give 5 stars. This is a distinct contrast with... More

Our annual trip to the Drovers in Llanwrtyd was as enjoyable as ever. Peter and his staff once again looked after us to the highest standards and food was of course superb!

For over twenty years our family has eaten here - individually and together. The food is always good (local produce whereever possible) and there is wine as well! Peter James, his sister Paulette, and team are always cheerful. Its position, by the bridge over the Irfon river is excellent and there is a small garden for when it is fine.... More
