We are a party of walkers who return to Gwen and Idris' magnificent b & b year after year, simply because it's the best we've ever found.

We recently stayed here as we were attending a wedding in the area. The service was fantastic right from the time of making our reservation. The couple who own it could not do enough for us and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast was fantastic, all home cooked and plenty of it! I would certainly recommend Pen y dre
