I had a comfortable stay with a cozy room and enjoyed a hearty breakfast. I found the room layout challenging due to a high window and had a minor issue with noise from the bathroom systems. Great for short stays, especially for enjoying the nearby gardens.

A simple breakdown of my experience
Impressive stay! The owner welcomed me heartily and accommodated my motorcycle perfectly. The room was spacious and bright, and the meals were exceptional. Breakfast fueled my day wonderfully. I enjoyed the cozy bar atmosphere and friendly locals. The setting is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, being right on the Cambrian Way.

Awesome stay in Ponterwyd 🌄
The vibe here is so warm, ya! The staff are like family, and the food is straight-up delicious—try the garlic mushrooms! Then there's the mountain view from our room—a real koppie view, lekker to chill and breathe it all in.
Just a bit chilly in the room, only one radiator working, but not a biggie.

The location is stunning, providing beautiful views and ample parking space, especially for cruiser bikes. The bar atmosphere is great, mixing both locals and guests, making it a cozy place to unwind after a long day.
The reception area feels dated and cluttered, resembling a time capsule stuck in the 1970s. The double room I got had a high window that restricted movement around the bed and offered no real view. noise from the plumbing was quite disruptive—especially in the morning when it sounded like a heavy machinery operation. Breakfast options were limited and not particularly fresh, with incomplete items left over from the previous day that made for an unpleasant sight. Lastly, it was annoying to have to schedule breakfast times when the idea is to relax and take your time.
