Our hostess, Christine, was very welcoming. She was a wealth of knowledge of the local area, providing valuable information about parking options. Christine also provided suggestions for our evening meal, with her local being our choice for dinner. Breakfast was fresh and her poached eggs were awesome. Highly recommended.

Christine was very friendly and made sure we had a great stay. She cooks an amazing English breakfast as that we enjoyed before our trip out of town. The room was very comfortable and has everything you need. There’s lots of great places to eat and a grocery store very close by as well. We fully recommend staying here!

Brecon

Arrived in Brecon and the Ty Helyg was easy to find free parking oposite. It is also only a few minutes walk to the High Street where there are lovely little shops and eating places. The guest house is very pleasant, tasefully decorated with lovely white quilt covers and bed linen. Host Christine and Robin were very welcoming and helpful. Great breakfasts. I will certainly stay there again.

Christine, the host, was fantastic. Exceptionally helpful and kind. The accommodation was clean, of a high standard and comfortable. I would recommend Ty Helyg to anyone visiting Brecon or the area. Just a short walk from all the main attractions, pubs and shops it's central location provides a perfect base. Parking, though not on site, is close by.

Over the August bank holiday weekend, we stumbled across Christine & Johns delightful Guest House. In the run up to our trip we were graced with information from Christine herself on places to eat and what was on offer in the area. Highly recommend booking in advance for eating out, primarily due to the current times let alone the fact it was a bank holiday Weekend. The Guest House has adapted to Covid-19 in a highly professional manner yet maintained the charm and character that Christine and John have worked hard to build up. We knew in advance of the changes that had been made and the policies that had been put in place. We thought it may feel ‘clinical’ but this feeling melted away within minutes of arriving, it’s crystal clear this Guest House is a home away from home. We were greeted and checked in by Christine, with a beaming smile and friendly ‘Hello!’. We knew this weekend had been the right choice. We were guided through the changes in place and what we could expect and what was expected from us. Nothing that shouldn’t be a surprise or difficult for anyone to manage. We then placed our order for a cooked breakfast in the morning before heading out for an last minute evening meal and drink at The Wellington Hotel. The room itself exceeded expectations, a double room with a king size bed. While some decorative items had been removed and it was obvious cleaning was set at a very high standard our room felt warm, cosy and had a fresh feeling. The initia
