We did the hike up Pen Y Fan with a large group of friends earlier in the day and then stayed over at the Bear afterwards. Everyone in our group booked their accommodation individually, however the Bear were happy to arrange a large table for our group and we pre ordered our meals ahead of time. We will definitely be back!

A delightful country town amidst superb scenery.
A delightful country town amidst superb scenery. It has history, plenty of places for refreshment - coffee, fish and chips and the Bear Hotel which is excellent and has to be visited for it's architecture alone ! Also a couple of shops that are outstanding including a magnificent hardware emporium plus an interesting art gallery/ Information centre.
A first rate introduction to the Brecon Beacons

Crickhowell is a lovely country town with some very nice shops. If you like walking it's perfect. It has a stunning old stone bridge spanning the River Usk.
There are a number of attractive pubs in the town.
All in all, a perfect place for a few days away for adults.

Great place for a sto off on a motorbike trip around tha Brecon Beacons. Shame that there was no slot for us for an evening meal, but The Old Rectory did fantastic burgers and beer.... but no triple room as required.
Excellent breakfast at a little cafe on the high Street!

A lovely comfortable, clean and well looked after cottage. Set in a peaceful location, within a short drive to nearby towns of Crickhowell and Abergavenny. We really enjoyed our stay. It had everything we needed and more, a real home from home. Modern and very well equipped kitchen. We would recommend and would love to return 😊.
Lovely period accommodation, right Inthe middle of this lovely little town and retaining lots of original features, slightly quirky - but everything we needed was there. For our business trip so much better than a hotel as we were able work at the dining table. We had breakfast at the dragon inn which I highly recommend.
Lovely room, especially the bathroom, great food in the restaurant in the evening and at breakfast, all staff very friendly. Beautiful location near the lovely town of Crickhowell and close to Abergavenny which we enjoyed exploring too.
Beautiful looking hotel in the heart of Crickhowell, pleasant areas to sit at front and back courtyard garden, in an extremely attractive market towns with stunning views
