Ten places to stay in Wales with walks from the door, warm hospitality and the kind of extras walkers appreciate from route tips to hearty meals
Walkers have been resting weary soles at this Ceredigion inn for centuries or, rather, drovers have. Since at least the 17th century cattle would be herded from this small town over the Cambrian mountains to markets in London and the Midlands. These days any stomping around the hills is done for pleasure; Tregaron is a Walkers Are Welcome town and the inns owners are seasoned hikers, happy to suggest routes, pack picnics, recommend organised local walks, point guests in the direction of local guide, Dafydd or show you to the dedicated drying room.
