Gliffaes Country House Hotel

Hidden off the beaten track in between the Brecon Beacons and the Black Mountains is one of Wales’s best-kept secrets. Among the old trees, spacious lawns and with a commanding view of the River Usk is Gliffaes Country House, built-in 1888. The same family has run the house as a hotel and fly-fishing lodge since 1948. Gliffaes has 33 acres of grounds and 2.5 miles of prime wild brown trout fishing on the River Usk.
