What guests write in the book.

A bath by the window looking down Broad Street, the quietest night's sleep we have had in years, and the best breakfast of our lives. The laverbread converted James. We have booked the same weekend next year.

Came for three days on the Black Mountain in March weather. Boots dry every morning in the drying room, a packed lunch on the dresser, and Dafydd dropped me at Llanddeusant on the wettest day. Exactly what a walker needs.

The courtyard door made it so easy with a young dog, and Bella had her own towel and a biscuit on the bed. Breakfast at the hall table with her under it. Ffion and Mabli made her very welcome.

Rode the Brianne loop from the door and the bike store was perfect. Four stars only because the Telegraph Room is over the street and the Friday market starts setting up early; light sleepers should ask for Penny Black, as Ffion suggested afterwards.

We came on the Heart of Wales line without a car and never missed one. Four minutes from the station, the river path, the bookshop, and two dinners in town Ffion booked for us.

Nine of us for our mother's seventieth. The breakfast room was our sitting room with the stove lit, Ffion made a cawl the first night, and the breakfasts were the talk of the weekend.
