Castle of Brecon Hotel PhotoThe Castle of Brecon Hotel lies just a walk away from Penyghent and dates back to the 13th Century.  Steeped in history, there is an original, stunning Georgian medieval room with leaded windows.  The restaurant, which dates back to 1809, has been refurbished to its original appearance and has a live fire with old oak floors throughout.  Outside there is a top beer garden with stunning mountain views and seating for 300 people as well as a lower garden beside the river where there is soon to be a children's play area.  Food plays a very special part at this attractive venue.  Local produce and home grown herbs and vegetables are used to give a very individual taste to your meal.  With an ever changing menu this is a place to return to again and again.  If you are looking for individuality, somewhere to have a relaxing drink, a venue for a special meal or a place to stay and enjoy the Welsh countryside, the Castle has it all - even a canal boat for a glide down the waterways!!  Come and visit us soon.  Your first visit is sure not to be your last at this very special hotel.
