The Malt House in Talybont-on-Usk

We have just returned home from a fabulous weekend away, my husband, friends and I. We travelled to South Wales in order to celebrate our mutual friends wedding.

We needed somewhere to stay and my friend found this Bread and Breakfast on the Internet.

The Malt House in Talybont-On-Usk was gorgeous. The house itself was old and full of character. It had a large living room which guests were able to use and watch television. There were french doors leading onto a patio and lawned area along with a pleasing water feature and a heated outdoor swimming pool available for use.

The River Usk ran next to the house which was pretty and relaxing to watch and listen too.

The proprietor Mike Bugler and his wife were friendly and accommodating, a real mine of information. They made their own honey and the gardens were pretty although we didn't have the opportunity to explore them fully.

The breakfast in the morning was served between 8am and 10am and consisted of a selection of cereals, yogurts, locally produced apple juice, orange juice, tea/coffee, toast with a selection of accompaniments such as nutella, marmite, marmalade and their own honey, and a full English breakfast. Everything was cooked to perfection and served pleasingly.

We definitely want to return here so that we can explore the area fully. The views were stunning and I would recommend this B&B to anyone wishing to stay in that area.
