As soon as my son, brother and I walked through the front door of The Castle Inn on Saturday Ahmed, Jill and their daughter made us very welcome. In fact sitting by the log fire, having had a few pints of Butty Bach, an enjoyable lunch and some friendly banter it was a hard decision to go walking, but we... More

Phoned up for a room ten days before arrival. Arrived at about 8:30pm on the Friday night to food cooking on 'hot rocks' and smiling face behind the bar. The full Welsh breakfast was enough to leave you feeling full, but not that big that you felt stuffed that you could not enjoy the wind in your hair and the... More

Clean and comfortable room with all necessary facilities. Excellent, home-cooked food and interesting menu, serving mostly local produce. We loved the 'hot rocks' where you cooked your own melt-in-the-mouth main course at the table. The pub is set in beautiful surroundings, so there are views from all windows. We found plenty of walking for four days without taking the car... More

I have stayed at teh Castle in on 2 occasions in a camper van in their camp site. It's a great combination to have a place to camp, good loos and showers and an ace pub. The staff are helpful and chatty and keep the fire well stoked as the wind blows through the black mountains. The food is great,... More

We stayed at The Castle in Pengenffordd for one night in the family room. It was great value and in a stunning location. We went sledging on the hills behind the pub and the landlord let us use one of his trays. A really friendly pub, great food and a nice clean room. The beds were really comfortable. The family...

The great thing about the Castle Inn was that they had a style for everyone - some of us had the comfort of the B&B, some opted for the bunkhouse and others could have pitched a tent if they wanted to. The food is absolutely fantastic - very important after seven hours traipsing across the ridge. Nice breakfast to start... More

It's all fairly basic accomodation, but is cheep, clean and comfortable, walkers are welcome, and... More
