The Table Mountain walk was superb and gorgeous. And both the Angel and The Bear were excellent places to stay, as regards both accommodation and food and service
Very good UK walk. Fabulous weather for second week of October in beautiful part of UK. Well done Inntravel on providing more UK based options.
A lovely holiday, even in the most persistent rain, including outstanding hotels and memorably good food. The canal walking is hypnotically beautiful, the countryside around is gorgeous, and the Beacons are a splendid, majestic contrast. The opportunity to eat at the Walnut Tree is not to be missed.

We not familiar with South Wales and found this holiday provided us with truly enjoyable experience that helped us appreciate how beautiful this part of the country is. At each of the locations where we stayed the staff were unfailingly friendly and helpful and really added to our enjoyment. We would thoroughly recommend this tour.
Definite highlight was the tranquility of the canal sections. Also The Bear was outstanding as a stopover hotel.
The whole walk was very enjoyable but the highlight was probably ascending Pen y Fan in clear dry sunny weather then on the descent having a very close view of a red kite.
Expertly put together, we were impressed at the comprehensive planning and organisation of the trip that ran like clockwork whilst away. The accommodation and transfers were all at a very high standard in every respect. We only did some of the sugegsted walks, chosing to walk our own routes mostly, but those offered were well thought out and were supported by the OS maps and excellent route notes provided
Generally good. Worth highlightling also the Herbert Chapel in St Mary's Abergavenny which has one of the largest number of medieval effigies in the UK (Thats why it called the Westmisnster Abbey of Wales)
A lovely holiday in the Brecon Beacons. We booked it because its an area that we had never tried before and were not disappointed. There is a good mixture of walks along canals and up hills and we thoroughly enjoyed the challenge. The hotels were good and all three locations deserve further exploration so we shall definitely return.
Another enjoyable holiday with Inntravel. As always all the arrangements worked well. We were glad we followed Inntravel's advice and booked our evening meals in advance - restaurants were busy and some were closed on Sundays and Mondays.
We were blessed with glorious weather which really helped but the hotels were good, scenery lovely and walking just about right. A very enjoyable break.
The holiday was superb. Not having done an Inntravel holiday before we weren't quite sure what to expect. We loved the combination of having two nights in each place, walking every day, and having our luggage transferred! The organisation was excellent and we felt very confident with all the arrangements. We will definitely book another holiday with Inntravel.
A most enjoyable walking holiday in a lovely part of the world. Lovely soothing stretches along the quiet towpaths, and then venturing up into the neighbouring hills each day. A perfect balance. We had great weather the whole week with only Pen y Fan being completely misted out such that we could hardly see a path and, as a result, took the wrong trail down from the wrong place! Nonetheless, once we descended from the clouds the walk and views were still wonderful. Note: don't follow the crowd as we did, but read and reread the notes again (map was no use as we couldn't see in front of us to locate anything!).
Each of the hotels were superb, as were the very generous breakfasts and included meals. Extremely friendly, helpful hoteliers and lovely rooms.
Tip: Given the times we are in at the moment (and that it was the last week of school holidays), we booked restaurants for each night. In our view, the best were at the Hotels themselves (with the exception of Brecon where the accommodation is B&B only), and so we ate at both 2 nights running at the first 2 hotels. We booked Gurka Corner in Brecon a good few weeks ahead, but on the night were "bumped" and so ate at Zeera, an Indian in town, with which we were very happy.
There is a bakery in Brecon where we bought our picnic lunch for the last day. They have pre-made sandwiches, quiches, pasties etc, and will make up sandwiches to order. It is the same in Crickhowell.
Most excellent walking country. The canalside transfer walks were particularly delightful with a lush abundance of greenery, flowers and wildlife coupled with the remains of the industrial heritage of the area. All of the towns were well worth exploring in their own right.
Tips: We were unble to visit the Regimental Museum of the Royal Welsh as our day in Brecon was a Sunday when it is closed. Apart from the Wetherspoons pub it seemed that all restaurants in Brecon were fully booked on Saturday night. It may be advisable to book in advance.
