    This is a little gem in Llandovery, the rooms are fantastic, very quaint, excellent decor and comfy beds, we stayed in The Lady of the Lake room it was perfect. Mark and Karen were perfect hosts. They couldn't do enough for us and made it a perfect weekend break away. The breakfast was 10 out of 10, and the cosy log fire in the bar/ living room was very cosy with the honesty bar they provided, which was very well stocked. We would definitely go back and highly recommend this lovely B&B.

    The hosts Karen and Mark are exceptionally welcoming and determined to make their guests stay as perfect as possible. The rooms are beautiful and I enjoyed a wonder deep soak in an enormous bath, drying myself on soft fluffy towels. Breakfast delicious with a wide selection of dishes.

    Mark & Karen made my wife and I feel very welcome and were wonderful hosts with great attention to detail. The New White Lion is a beautiful place to stay - the decor, furniture and antiques reflecting its rich history. The breakfasts were top-rate; locally produced ingredients, beautifully presented. Close to town with its historical connections, craft and antique shops etc. and within easy reach of other attractions such as National Trust.

    Fantastic welcome from Mark and Karen who could not have done more to make our stay memorable. They are exceptional hosts. Our room was beautifully styled and a delight to stay in with a very comfy bed, little treats of chocolate and fudge, quality biscuits and drinks including thoughtful touches like fresh milk. The breakfasts were amazing with very generous portions and we were urged to help ourselves to cake and fruit for the day and our coffee flask always filled for us. An extensive honesty bar and lovely lounge area were brilliant extras. A B&B which we would be delighted to go back to and which is an absolute gem!

    Where to start? We have just returned from an absolutely fantastic stay at the New White Lion. We were given a free room upgrade, a room with a bath which was perfect after our days out walking. This is a high end B&B and very tastefully decorated and so clean. We enjoyed making use of the lounge area and honesty bar. There were always plenty of goodies in the lounge to help ourselves to, (we took cookies to eat after our walk). Breakfast was superb, all fresh and local produce. Mark and Karen are fantastic hosts. They have only been running this business since last October and we wish them the future success they so deserve.

    Nothing - we could find no fault with the property or the hosts - exceptional.

    Booked as we were attending a wedding in nearby Myddfai. This is a fantastic property in the heart of Llandovery, Mark and Karen are superb hosts. Mark contacted me the evening before arrival to welcome us and advise re parking - nice touch. Both Mark and Karen were waiting to welcome us on arrival. All rooms are individually decorated and named and have excellent facilities - tea /coffee/milk/ bathrobes/ chocolates and a small mini fridge on the landing for cold drinks etc. The lounge has a small "honesty bar" and is very comfortable. All the public areas are beautifully decorated and comfortable, as are the bedrooms. Karen made us breakfast to order on both mornings - it was delicious. The wedding was early on Saturday, so Mark arranged for us to pre-order our breakfast to save time- thank you Mark. If you are looking for somewhere to stay in Llandovery, look no further- The New White Lion is excellent on all levels - I cannot recommend it highly enough.

    The ambiance of the property and hospitality of our hosts Mark and Karen was exceptional. The rooms are stylish, light, airy and the whole experience so welcoming. We stayed 6 nights in the Lady of the Lake room, with super sized comfy bed, luxury towels, complimentary drinks and chocolates. There is a spacious breakfast room and a superb, extensive, truly delicious breakfast menu! Excellent location within the town centre, close to all amenities and centrally positioned for touring around all of South Wales.
