Surrounded by beautiful scenery but just a few minutes' walk from Hay-On-Wye's center, this charming inn has a traditional wooden-beamed bar. Dating back hundreds of years, Oliver Cromwell is rumored to have stayed in the 17th century.

Full of character, old beams and low ceilings but with modern bathroom and a good shower. Staff were really friendly and welcoming. Food in the restaurant and at breakfast was great, as was the local beer! Centrally-located for the rest of Hay and the gateway to the Black Mountains for walking and cycling.

Incredible staff - everyone was so wonderfully kind and helpful! Dinner at the hotel was delicious, the rooms were very comfortable and the location was perfect for walking to the centre of town. It was also very affordable for our family. We will absolutely be staying again when we visit in the future!
It is an old building with multiple steps to get to places, so keep that in mind if you have accessibility needs.

Lovely old pub and great staff! Amazing location.
Can be a little challenging for tall people but this was expected given the age of the building. Just remember to duck.
