Escape and relax in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park
The Kestrel Inn, situated in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park, is a traditional country Bed and Breakfast that has been lovingly restored to offer comfortable and relaxing accommodation to our guests. Our beautiful B&B was originally built as a coaching stop on the main route from London to Fishguard, and was first named 'The Halfway Inn' due to its equidistant location from Brecon and Abergavenny.
Our Story
After being closed for nearly 10 years, we took on the challenge of renovating and resurrecting The Kestrel Inn, breathing new life into this historic building. Over a period of 12 months, we worked tirelessly with local trades and specialists to bring the pub back to its former glory. Our family, including our three children, Ben, Alexander, and Annabel, were passionate about creating a unique and welcoming atmosphere that would showcase the best of Welsh hospitality.

In the evenings, join us in our cozy bar and enjoy a range of artisan drinks, fine wines, and delicious meals made from scratch on the premises.
