  I’m not sure there are any words to describe how perfect the Roost was, we stayed here for 2 nights and it was perfect!

Bikes do have a secure lock up in the chalets and there is a bike wash point on site as well. The rooms are compact but they provide enough room for you and your kit. There is a separate drying room for drying out wet kit. The kitchen pods are great and well equipped, also the showers are clean and hot water is always in abundance. I would highly recommend the Roost to anyone and would definitely stay there again.

The... read more site is perfect as a base for exploring the stunning nature of Brecon Beacons. It is situated at the outskirts of a village, pretty close to the highway, so you can hear the traffic – but non the less it is so peaceful and calming. The cabin we had was absolutely wonderful! Everything was clean and dry and warm. And the architecture and planning was both beautiful and functional. This little surface had everything, including a perfect bathroom with a lovely hot shower. The beds were super comfy. I have never stayed in a cabin more well equipped. There was a little kitchenette and it had all utensils you could wish for, even a toaster. And yet nothing too much, all very minimalistic, clean and clutter free. And there was even a torch, stuck into the power outlet, in case there was a power cut. Talk about service! This must be the creation by somebody with lots of craftiness, experience, thoughtfulness, ingenuity – and love for out door life and out door people! Never felt more well taken care of by a little house 🙂 Recommending this wholeheartedly!

  Another 5* stay at The Roost Merthyr… This is our 3rd time staying here and we would thoroughly recommend it. See you again soon!

I love the eco friendly approach too. After a day of riding at Bikepark Wales the hot shower and super comfy bed was just the thing we needed. The bike wash and repair area again is a huge bonus. Thank you for making the ideal place to stay for us mountain bikers! We couldn't have wanted/needed anything more. We can't wait to stay again soon, Donna and Ian

  The place is amazing, stayed for 2 nights while visiting Bike Park Wales. Booked out 2 cabins for 4 adults and all were throughly impressed (calls for another visit and... read more booking before we even got out the first night). Great location for getting to and from BPW with plenty of amenities near by for post rides. The cabins, kitchen and bath/shower rooms were all great sizes, well equipped and spotless. Beds were really comfy, exactly what you want after a hard days riding! Kath was a fantastic host too, who was approachable and made us feel welcome from before we even arrived! Will definitely be back and highly recommend to anyone.
