James John Hamilton House and backpacker hostel

Everything we needed was there, with a bit extra too. Steve was a really good host. We had a great stay and would happily recommend the place.

We were cycling across Wales and chose to add another night here for a proper rest day. Our first room was booked for that second night, so we moved, but every room was superb. The place is roomy, comfortable, and clean, and Steve is incredibly generous. It would suit solo travelers, couples, or families. I'd give it 10 stars if that were possible.

Steve went well beyond what you'd expect to help us feel at ease. Such a gem of a place, with unbelievable hospitality. We'll definitely come back.

That late night save was much appreciated, Steve. He's a wonderful man and runs a place with amazing rooms and a beautiful building. Breakfast comes with Lapsang Souchong and fancy marmalades as standard, which is unreal. There's a reason all the visitors give it 5 stars.
