Taste Inn Wales

Welcome to Taste Inn Wales

We hope this will be a place for like-minded folk who live, love to visit, or like Wales.

Our intention is for Taste Inn Wales to evolve into a community-based website for anyone interested in what’s going on, in and around the Brecon Beacons, who share an interest in food, wine, well being and general nice stuff!

We would love to hear from you, with any comments, views, suggestions, features or photographs you would like to see on this website, and you can send these to: reply@tasteinnwales.com

Special 'Ladies Chill Out Day' Offer at The Manor Hotel
 
The bluebells cover the hillside, the alfresco tables (and brollies) are outside and its surely time for drinks and dining on our riverside terrace! Optimists as always, we’re offering a half-day Spa and Spring lunch with glorious views (inside or outside), all for £55.00 per person.
 
We are one and our first year has been exciting and eventful (all good)
 
Bikes are a big deal to us as our ‘special cycling breaks’ match our own lifelong passion for bicycles. Well and truly out of the closet, yes we do wear lycra, and our hotels are all geared up to welcome cyclists. Whether you’re pushing yourself up these steep, unforgiving roads on your own ‘Tour de Beacons’, or you prefer to hurtle downhill on your mountain bike, you’ll get some very special treatment from us.
 
The Tour of Britain comes back to the Brecon Beacons this year - good news for cycling fans like us!
 
The British Asparagus season starts today – cause for celebration at Taste Inn Wales restaurants as this perky little veggie is one of our favourite things. When the countryside starts to turn green, heralding the arrival of spring, asparagus spears will begin popping their heads up above the ground. For eight short weeks, from late April, this seasonal delight is abundant and it’s time for a celebration in the kitchen for those who love this luxurious vegetable. Full-flavoured, deliciously sweet and tender, British asparagus is regularly described as the 'best in the world'. Get some from local growers if you can – farmers markets are great for finding the best, just picked, freshest asparagus. While the British climate ensures optimum conditions to achieve the perfect-tasting spear, the fact that it is grown here means that it can be quickly transported from field to our plates.
 
We recently joined in with the fantastic annual balloon festival in Llandovery. We had lots of balloonists staying here at The Castle and couldn't resist popping in and out to watch the elegant things gently wafting overhead. How serene and beautiful they are, silently floating with only the gentle wooshing sound as the burners keep them airborne. Amazingly calming.
 
Everything in life is all worthwhile if you have views like ours. As we peer outside of the windows at Peterstone Court, we gaze over the flowing river and see an ocean of bluebells - they're out pretty early this year and you can't help but smile at the vibrant colours which now light up the place.
 
Its official, there's nothing we love more than our Mums. Proof positive this weekend, as we are delighted to report that Mother's Day was celebrated in big style in Wales - it was a positive sellout at all three of our restaurants. We served over 500 people with very special Mother's Day menus! And we have no doubt that the mum's of Britain deserve every break, every hug, kiss and treat we can give them to show our appreciation. Its a shame we only tell them once a year how much they mean to us. So, to all the Mum's who were given a day off and happily waited on by us, at The Manor, Peterstone Court and the Castle Hotel, we salute you! Anytime you need a break, please come again, we'll make sure you get looked after, appreciated and treated as you deserve 365 days a year.
 
There is a new star in Britain’s best kitchens, as fancy foams, splodges of colour across the plate and fine dining begins to wane, in favour of simpler foods. Top of leading chefs’ ‘most wanted’ list, the new gastronomy gadget taking the culinary world by storm is called a ‘Josper Oven’. Its not exactly a new invention as it originated from Northern Spain over 40 years ago, but the Josper is very new in the UK. There is only one in Wales and its right here at The Castle Hotel.
