What we expected after reading the reviews. We needed a place to stay for two days of hiking and the pool was a bonus. The jacuzzi isn’t warm enough and most of the jets don’t work. Our room was old, a bit damp, extremely creaky noisy wobbly floor, especially in the bathroom. No bedside table on one side of the bed despite there being room. No wall mounted shower or curtain. We found it tricky to hang wet things without a shower or towel rail. The bed was very comfortable though and it was very quiet. Saying all that - the staff were lovely and the food was excellent. Pricey but it was worth it. It’s an old building and needs a lot of work which would be very expensive so I understand why it’s run down. It could be so much better. All in all we had a nice stay as the scenery and area was beautiful.

The Staff are always brilliant at The Nant Ddu Lodge. They are friendly, courteous and always willing to help. We love coming here, this is where we come to chill and also catch up on our paperwork and prepare for when we go back home. The room we had this time was a new one on us, but we loved it and hope we can stay in it again. Thank you all for making our stay as great as always. Oh and the food is yum😋.

My partner and I had a fantastic stay here. The room was lovely and very warm and bed very comfortable. Breakfast was really good and very generous. We had a delicious meal in the restaurant one evening. Staff were all brilliant and extremely helpful. The swimming pool and hot tub were really nice, especially after a long hike. We felt it was extremely good value. Many thanks!

Lovely grounds, lovely upstairs suite, excellent breakfast, great pool area, hot tub not as hot as expected. Staff very helpful and friendly. Would stay again. Suggest you indicate in advance if you have mobility issues, as we loved being upstairs but did not know in advance.

Sited in the Beacons in its own grounds, location is just idilic. Plenty of parking with easy access and a warm, friendly welcome on entering reception you do feel like you are privileged just being there. Rooms are large, well appointed and clean. Arriving just after lunch we had a very generous and delicious bar meal and drinks to tide us over to the evening meal booked. Pool and spa facilities are again spotlessly clean, with free towels and robes for residents. Evening meal options to suit all tastes were excellent, with a good selection of wines and quality beers served all surprisingly reasonably priced. Breakfast was part of the room price and again gave excellent selection self serve whilst awaiting you hot breakfast cooked to your preference. As an older building, not everything is perfect and some areas could do with update and/or TLC but this in no way affected our enjoyment and stay. Finally, thanks go to the entire staff who without exception made our stay special from start to finish.

Excellent for the price. Full breakfast included. Pool and hot tub included. Free parking. It was very clean but a little worn around the edges and closer to the road than I would have thought but overall I'd definitely come back. Hot tub was great after hiking all day. Area is exceptionally beautiful. We liked the small town of Llandovery if you're looking for a cute place to eat. Staff was lovely. Bar and restaurant on site.
