Christine was very friendly and made sure we had a great stay. She cooks an amazing English breakfast as that we enjoyed before our trip out of town. The room was very comfortable and has everything you need. There’s lots of great places to eat and a grocery store very close by as well. We fully recommend staying here!

Cosy, comfortable and convenient...

We spent two nights at Ty Helyg and found it very cosy and comfortable. Nicely furnished even to the extent of having quite dark curtains AND a black out blind which in itself, rates highly for me. Very conveniently situated for Brecon town and local area. Free wifi with good reception in our room. Christine and John are a lovely couple, very friendly and helpful couple. We would definitely recommend this B&B.

Our hostess, Christine, was very welcoming. She was a wealth of knowledge of the local area, providing valuable information about parking options. Christine also provided suggestions for our evening meal, with her local being our choice for dinner. Breakfast was fresh and her poached eggs were awesome. Highly recommended.

Arrived in Brecon and the Ty Helyg was easy to find free parking oposite. It is also only a few minutes walk to the High Street where there are lovely little shops and eating places. The guest house is very pleasant, tasefully decorated with lovely white quilt covers and bed linen. Host Christine and Robin were very welcoming and helpful. Great breakfasts. I will certainly stay there again.
