We just needed a stay for one night, and we chose the Rhydspence Inn. It was a truly lucky find because the atmosphere was so welcoming and friendly (under enthusiastic new management), the place is homely and full of interest and intrigue (being so old), and the food was very good. It's in a lovely location too. We thought we... More

We booked The Rhydspence for three nights because I was attending a stained-glass workshop nearby and we needed somewhere nice to stay. Peter, the landlord, was friendly and made us feel instantly at home. Our bedroom was large and very comfortable with a nice en suite, with high quality furnishings which suited the huge beams in the ceiling and walls.... More

Having read the reviews it seemed ideal, although after confirming my booking and asking what time last orders for food was, I was told they no longer did evening meals, just breakfast. We arrived about 5pm with the place locked up and no obvious signs... More

Snug bar with log fire, bdrooms comfy ans spacious with lots of storage, but very dated. The bathroom had... More

This was the fourth time we have stopped at the RhydSpence and it never fails to impress. We got engaged at the Rhydspence in 2006 and try to get back every year. The rooms are always warm, clean and well looked after, the food is always wonderful and the beer is always well kept. Peter the landlord/Owner is the very... More

The inn is steeped in history, and clean comfortable.Anyone looking for 21st century fixtures and fittings will be disappointed, but for me the room and ensuite were perfectly adequate for the property. The purpose for my stay was to visit historic sites and buildings in the Hrefordshire/Wales border region. Peter was extremely helpful in suggesting many locations that I had... More

I wanted to take my mother and sister out for a treat so decided to go to the Rhydspence. My sister had had bar meals over the last couple of years which she said were lovely, so I was happy to try their evening meals. I knew it wasn't the cheapest place to eat but I don't mind paying if... More
