"Above our expectations - very enjoyable stay."
From our arrival, Paul was so welcoming. Our lovely room had the most comfortable bed and everything we needed was there. In the morning, the breakfast was excellent - nothing was too much trouble. Paul was helpful too in directing us to site-seeing spots in Wales. I was particularly happy that our little dog was also made welcome! Read less

Rhayader is a bustling little town with much to see and do, and with a selection of pubs offering accommodation. The Horseshoe provided a central but rather quieter location.
