Stables ReviewThose who don't like living in a stable should rethink their prejudice. This unusual hotel was constructed around stone stables that were famous locally many years ago for horse breeding. Some of the trained horses here eventually ended up helping fight South Africa's Boer War. Today those stables have been considerably enlarged with modern wings and slate roofs whose materials and angles match those of the original core. Most of the good-size and comfortably furnished accommodations with commodious private bathrooms are in an L-shaped annex whose innermost corner shelters a swimming pool. Several of the bedrooms have four-poster beds. The on-site bar and bistro offers an extensive menu daily with specials posted on a blackboard. There is also a fine range of cask ales to wash down the Welsh specialties. You receive good value for the quality food served here.

| 3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
