Our family was treated royally at the Black Lion Guest House in Abergavenny, which is a terrific launching point for hiking holidays in Wales. Mike and Hazel were gracious and charming hosts and bent over backwards in every way whether it was making delicious to-order breakfasts, huge brown-bag lunches for our all-day hiking trips, or schlepping us to and from...

A very warm welcome and nice comfortable rooms all rounded off by an excellent breakfast. Also very nicely posted my phone charger back to me at cost to themselves after i left it in the room. Excellent B+B. Look forward to returning.

We needed 2 rooms because we we're traveling with our mums. The daughter was very helpfull and friendly, a great saleswoman in the future!!! The breakfast was fantastic!!!! The whole... More

I was able to book a room with a few weeks notice. We arrived to such a warm welcome from the owners. They were very flexible in terms of arrival times, and were prepared to let us in at 1am if needed! Although I had booked a twin room, I was bumped up to the family room with an en... More

I've stayed here a few times now for work purposes. Each time I travelled alone but was made so welcome by Mike and Hazel - it was a home from home. They remembered me each time I visited and treated me like one of their own. Always going the extra mile for their customers this place is worth it for... More

nice clean B & B, but what set this one apart was the hospitality. As we were checkingin, we asked for a resaurant recommendation as it was our wedding anniversary. A few minutes after getting organised in our room there was a knock on the door, and there was Mike with a bottle of wine and two crystal wine glasses.... More

Having booked a cottage near Abergavenny only to arrive finding it had been double booked, the Black Lion were able to accommodate us at short notice (20 mins). We couldn't have asked for a warmer welcome. Rooms are spotlessly clean with added extras such as bath robes and a bottle of water. Breakfast was varied and tasty. Free wi-fi and... More

I booked two nights for myself and my wife last weekend in a "deluxe twin" at £90 a night - expensive for a guest-house but I hoped it would be worth it. When we arrived we found that not only was there nothing to justify the "deluxe" tag - it was a rather cramped front room - but also that... More

I arrived on a hot Sunday afternoon, tired and travel weary. I was greeted with such warmth and hospitality from Michael and Hazel that I soon felt at home! This continued during the course of the week I stayed there. I would recommend the Black Lion to anyone. The standard is good, food excellent and the owners go out of... More

The Black Lion Guest House is run by the kindest people ever, Mike and Hazel. Their rooms are very clean and homey which is really nice after the light summer rain in Wales. Our room was really bright and had a brand new super clean and spacious bathroom. The breakfast in the mornings was delicious. They made fabulous eggs and... More
