Gail, our host, couldn’t have been more helpful. Her local knowledge was outstanding. Breakfast was a treat not to be missed. My wife and I had a wonderful four dat stay.

Gail was an outstanding host. Her local knowledge of Brecon and the whole region was amazing and she gave us some great suggestions of things to see in the area. Our room was large and had nice teas & coffee making facilities. Breakfast was the best. Would not hesitate to recommend the Borderers.

Although we only stayed for two nights, we absolutely loved our stay in Brecon in Borderers Guesthouse. Gail's hospitality is amazing; the room was comfortable and clean, the breakfast was delicious (including homemade marmalade and jam!) and Gail did everything she could to ensure our stay was pleasant and comfortable. She also gave really good recommendations for the area - we would love to visit again for a longer period of time to really explore the nature around Brecon. 10/10 would return :)

Gail is a wonderful host, very friendly and knowledgeable. Great breakfast! The location is perfect for getting into town, to the cathedral, the canal. Lots of places to eat within walking distance. Pen y Fan is a short drive. I look forward to returning.

Spent four nights here, had a great time. Gail went out of her way to be helpful. Room was comfortable if a little cramped but that didn't really bother us. Breakfasts were excellent. WiFi was fast and easily reached the room. Car park is small and the entrance to it is very tight indeed.

Welcoming B&B in the heart of Brecon,
Building is a quirky conversion of a former pub with an arch to a central courtyard where limited parking is available. Gail is a welcoming hostess and went to a lot of trouble to ensure I was comfortable. Breakfast (included0 is lavish. The situation is on a main street only a couple of minutes from the picturesque canal basin.

Cosy B&B, very friendly and attentive host
5 night stay at the Borderers. Forgot to bring proper winter night gown and next day I had an extra heater in the room with a friendly note from Gayle (host). Every day I was left a homemade treat. Extremely attentive and thoughtful. Truly recommend.

Très bien
Nous avons juste fait une étape dans cette chambre d'hotes ou nous avons eu un accueil très chaleureux. La chambre était confortable avec un lit King size. Petit déjeuner délicieux et copieux.
