I'm not one for going to hostels but I can confidently say that my stay was amazing. I stayed in a Landpod for 2 nights, and I can't recommend this experience enough. It felt so nice having the Landpod and being able to wake up in the morning to a lovely view of Wales, and the people were all very pleasant and the staff were awesome. Not to mention the facilities were off the scale good for a hostel, I've always thought hostels were run down, and this is the cream of the crop, it's such a pleasure to have stayed here. I spoke to my friend about going back, and will be soon organising a trip back to the YHA Brecon Beacons as it was just way to good. And the price was brilliant if anything they should charge more in my opinion, honestly a gem . Recommend to your friends once you stay, you won't regret it.

The perfect hideaway in the mountains. Great bus connections to cardiff and Brecon. Brilliant walks straight from the door up Pen Y Fan. A great homely feel with friendly staff

The location was fantastic with walks on the doorstep and a bus stop up the road. It was also very close to the four waterfalls trail at only 20 mins drive away. The staff were so welcoming and helpful and the vibe was relaxed and homely. I've stayed at hotels in the area before but this one is by far the best. The land pods are great with everything you could need and more.

We turned up to a very warm welcome. The staff were accomodating and the whole place felt homely. This particular YHA (Brecon Beacons) had just reopened after a refurb. And itvwas great to see it was warm and wel oming with a nice fire in the common room. Couldnt ask for any more. Well done YHA for doing what you do. If you are a person who wants silver service and large rooms this isnt the place for you. However if you are looking for a friendly people, warm, relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, meeting like minded people, amazing staff, always in the ideal setting for exploring then this is the place for you.

I really recommend this hostel if you would love to do some hikes in the Brecon Beacons! The staff was unbelievable friendly, everything was very clean, the beds are nice and the rooms had a nice temperature. Three little facts: I don’t know if it was just the day I was there or it is in general, but there isn’t a lot of youth there. Almost everybody was 30y or above or a family with children. I really didn’t mind as everybody was very friendly and respectful, but if you go to hostels to meet young people, it could be possible that there are none . The second ‘fact’ is that there is free breakfast as well. If you book a room, you can have free, but simple, breakfast like cornflakes, toast with jam, little croissants and chocolade breads(?), coffee and tea & some juice. I think this wasn’t really clearly mentioned on the website, so I’ve bought an English breakfast in advance. So if you don’t want to spend extra money, you’ll still be able to eat something before you go on an adventure : ) The last fact is that, even tho you only can check in at 17h, if you arrive early, you could drop your bags in the common room and go on a hike. It isn’t really guarded all the time, but I had the feeling the place and people there were very trustworthy!

Lovely friendly farmhouse YHA. We used trains and buses (bus stops right outside hostel) camped for 4 nights. Space for about 8-10 tents on the front lawns with an amazing view or we could have chosen anywhere in the woods - some lovely little quiet spots around. Bit midgey. Can buy firewood. Dedicated small modern kitchen for campers/land pods, bigger traditional kitchen and dining area for the dorms. Can use both. Only thing I would change is the small campers kitchen - was a bit small for so many camping and we couldn’t always get in there. Buses every couple hours up to Brecon town and beyond or down to Merthyr Tydfil and Cardiff. We walked to both Pen-y-Fan and Craig Cerrig-gleisiad directly from hostel. Would book again

Quite remote. Staff gave us free left over curry which was very nice. Beverage options are vast. About a 30 minute drive from pen y fan. Only had WiFi in the main rooms though. No signal or WiFi in the room we were in. We only stayed for one night so it didn’t matter for us. cheap and cheerful.
