Great Little Places enjoys a reputation in accommodation and superior standards Britain and worldwide as the collection without snobbery or strained formality. of small and friendly places to stay in Wales.

We looked for night for a double room to over £290 at hosts with personality, enthusiasm the luxury end of the market. But it’s value and uncompromising informed for money that counts, and we believe awareness of the needs of today’s more that you won’t find finer accommodation, discriminating travellers.
