Stayed here for a close friends wedding and was asked to help with wedding set up the day before. All the staff could not have been more helpful and patient helping with the wedding preparations! The wedding went really smoothly, the food was delicious and the sun shone! My room was lovely, really big and beautifully furnished. Breakfast was very good. Would stay here again.

Since the 19th century the Cup has been said to claim supernatural properties and the power to heal. The Cup would be given to the sick in exchange for a gold watch or coin to ensure its safe return to Nanteos, where the Powell family kept it.
