Lovely place to stay in the middle of the Brecon Beacons! Very comfortable room and beautiful food. Nice pool and pretty gardens. Choice of different holidays, all with friendly fellow guests and attentive staff.
A very good place and company for a walking holiday.
Very good service from all the staff. Stayed in hotel annexe classic bedroom, that was large, comfortable and peaceful, for their cheapest room it was a pleasant surprise. The communal areas of the hotel are in need of modernisation as a bit dull and old fashioned, needs brightening up. Breakfasts and packed lunches were very good, and dinner menu was generally aimed at the hotels older residents. If you are considering an HF holiday then Brecon is a good one to come to.
Just returned from a few nights with HF Holidays in Nythfa House. Very comfortable accommodation, delicious food and very attentive team looking after your every need. The 3 guides were knowledgeable, energetic, enthusiastic and great company. Had a wonderful time.
Just had a 3 night stay walking holiday. The usual HF standard of accommodation accommodation and wonderful staff service. I was on a self guided stay. However, 2 team leaders were available to answer any questions. If you've never been on an HF holiday, give it a go.
Massive improvement over a year ago. We love Trudy who does a wonderful job running the Kitchen. Emily is very efficient as deputy manager. Serving staff were delightful.
Stayed here for a walking weekend organised by our Ramblers Group. We were surprised to find the accommodation was rather like a nice country hotel with great food and lovely staff. Excellent drying room and maps provided for all classes of walk from gentle to strenuous. Thanks for making our hiking weekend so special.
A wonderful 4 day break at Nyftha House. The team were welcoming and everything planned for us. Food was amazing, walks incredible with choice and alterations on the day due to weather conditions. Everyone was made to feel at hime and included from day one, with a mix of people from groups to single travellers - Everyone was after the same goal a fabulous waking break.
