House is in a great location for Pen y Fan and use of the hotel facilities namely pool and sauna was a major attraction after a day's walking. Don't expect a welcome pack; there was no tea towel, scourer, oven gloves or dishwasher tablets which are usually supplied in our experience. No O2 mobile coverage in house or hotel but landlines in house foRead morer emergencies and WiFi was good. Hotel staff very helpful. Hide
