En-suite rooms have a bath or shower - some have both. All rooms have colour television; central heating; kettle with tea, coffee and hot chocolate; radio/alarm clock; shampoo; bubble bath/shower gel; soap; direct dial telephones. We also have a number of board games for guests to use in their rooms. Although we love animals and have our own dog, a rare breed known as Bitza (bits of this and bits of that!), we regret that pets are not allowed, as the Hotel does not have suitable facilities. Sometimes we get a bit soft on this rule, so it's always worthwhile giving us a call! Corporate Discount Rate: We don't believe in special behind the scenes arrangements. All our guests can take advantage of periodic special offers. Excellent service is assumed and fully included in all our prices. Our staff may accept gratuities but it's neither expected nor required. Unless other arrangements have been made we assume that guests will arrive by 8.00 p.m. We're a small Hotel and when guests don't show up it costs us real money so we will let rooms to others if we experience a no show. Nothing fixed; we just use common sense and ask our guests to do the same. We do ask that our chambermaids can get into the room to clean by 11 a.m. The telephone is charged at 20p per unit. This is higher than the amount charged by BT but we have had to install some pretty expensive telephone equipment. Breakfast in bed - no problem but please let us know the evening before. We will be only too happy to serve you tea, coffee, beverages and the odd sandwich in your room between 8.00 a.m. and 10 p.m. We ask that all other meals be taken in the restaurant. Smoking is permitted in designated rooms (if you can see an ashtray then please feel free to smoke) but we ask all smokers to be courteous and considerate to other guests who may be non-smokers.

The Lansdowne Hotel and Restaurant Brecon Welcome To Brecon. Table of Contents (Click on the word to view an item). [A Short History of Brecon]. [The Brecon Beacons]. Today, the busy market town of Brecon boasts a handsome market square, a riverside promenade, a magnificent cathedral, a ruined castle, the Brecknock Museum, the South Wales Borderers' Museum, a superb leisure centre and the new Theatr Brycheiniog. Its location on the north edge of the Brecon National Park and its proximity to so many of the delights of Wales make it an ideal base from which to explore south and mid Wales. A Short History of Brecon. The town has been inhabited for at least 4,500 years and takes its name from the grandson of a fifth century ruler. The grandson's name was Brychan from which comes Brycheiniog and later Brecon. During the Norman conquests, Bernard de Neufmarche, from the village of Neufmarche near Rouen, the capital of Normandy, undertook the development of the town as a fortification against the unruly Welsh. Through the marriage of his daughter Sybil the town passed to the Earl of Hereford and then to William de Braose and later Humphrey de Bohun. In the middle of the fifteenth century the Lordship of Brecon was handed to the Staffords, the Dukes of Buckingham, who were the last Lords of Brecon. The politics of the middle ages were such that the Tudors finally eliminated the semi independent Lordship and by Acts of Parliament in 1536 and 1543 the Welsh Marches were brought under Royal control. The County of Brecknock was created in place of the Lordship of Brecon. In 1974 Brecknock merged into county of Powys. Welcome To The Brecon Beacons. The Brecon Beacons National Park covers more than 510 square miles and provides a natural barrier between the old industrial valleys of South Wales and rural mid Wales. The park is mainly high open moorland and the Beacons themselves are the highest mountains in southern Britain and so provide spectacular views in all directions. The Brecon National Park is a walkers paradise with walks that challenge the most seasoned walker but also with many lowland walks for the less ambitious. Although a small country, Wales has outstanding natural beauty and a wealth of places to visit. The country has three national parks - the Brecon Beacons, Snowdonia and Pembrokeshire and five Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty - the Isle of Anglesey, the Llyn Peninsula, the Clwydian Range, the Gower Peninsula and the Wye Valley. The country's natural beauty ensures that every visitor is able to explore their own particular interest whilst enjoying the traditional Welsh welcome for which the people are famed.
