The Lamb and Flag Inn

A welcoming, friendly pub with good beer, tasty food and clean, comfortable accommodation.

Can’t complain for the price paid but the room and bathroom facilities are extremely dated and resemble 1990. Cigarette burns in the carpet, a broken bathroom light, kettle, tv and wardrobe all covered in a mountain of dust. Zero sound insulation from the pub below and the street outside (the latter to be expected) but extremely noisy when people returned to neighbouring rooms. If you want a good nights sleep. You’d need to look elsewhere. Food at the pub however was very good and staff were kind and pleasant.

Comfortable bed, lovely staff. When I arrived the signs through the front door was confusing. I just found my way through to the bar where I spoke to the lovely staff behind the bar. Staff were really nice. Was shown to my room. Bed was comfortable, bedding and towels were clean. Carpet and bathroom floor was not clean. Hair on the bathroom floor. Tea and coffee was a welcome addition. Had to move the kettle to boil it though as it didn’t reach the plug. Bathroom could do with some TLC. Just looks a bit grimy. One of the blinds has the thing you twist to close them, missing. Was a bit fiddly to close the blinds.

Perfect night sleep Was a perfect night stay even though i got there around 10pm so did not have food.

Most friendly local patrons and most helpful to tourists in giving advice to travel in and around Rhayader itself. Food was outstandingly delicious and seriously plentiful. food and drinks are well priced. Rhayader has many pubs and restaurants to visit and enjoy local well being. The water reservoirs in Elan Valley are really worth visiting and has superb scenery. There is very quaint little church to visit too.

The bathroom shower curtains were terribly mouldy. The food was poor - fish undercooked and batter overcooked. Waitress very pleasant however. Bed very comfortable.
