Welcome to the Lion Royal

Rhayader is also referred to as ‘The Outdoor Capital of Wales’ and after a busy day of activities, our guests are drawn to the comfortable Chesterfield Sofas in the Front Bar. Where you can kick back next to a roaring log fire and enjoy a traditional Welsh evening.

As part of the refurbishment, we purchased the entire panelling, along with many fixtures and fittings of the late HSBC bank (formerly Midland Bank) in Rhayader, keeping the Bank & its history in the Town to this very day.
