About The Horseshoe Inn

The Horseshoe Inn is a traditional stone-built pub-hotel on Hillside Rd in Crickhowell, the kind of solid, low-slung inn that anchors a small Welsh market town. Its character comes from that pub heritage: a proper bar downstairs, a restaurant, and the general feel of a building that has long served as a local gathering point rather than a purpose-built hotel.

Rooms are en-suite and include family options, with drinks available in room, free WiFi throughout, and 24 hour reception for flexible arrivals. Breakfast is served on site, and the bar and restaurant cover evening meals and drinks without needing to leave the building. Free on-site parking is provided, useful given the inn's position outside the main town centre.

Crickhowell sits within reach of the Brecon Beacons, and the inn is well placed for walking and cycling in the surrounding hills, with fishing also available nearby. There's a pub and restaurant scene close by too, so guests have choice beyond the inn's own kitchen. It suits those wanting a straightforward, unfussy base for exploring the area on foot, bike or by car.
