Lovely relaxing couple of days to celebrate our 30 the wedding anniversary. The hotel is lovely , beautiful grounds by the lake , staff are all amazing , food excellent, they should have a Michelin Star 🌟 Our room was lovely , we stayed in River, nice full size toiletries to use in you’re room , clean white towels , kettle etc . Breakfast was great , lots of choice , and very nice 👍 The evening meals were delicious, as I said earlier they should have a Michelin star . The staff , Hannah , Laura , Adam , Liam , Zoe & Leah were all amazing , also the other lady who served us breakfast , but we didn’t catch her name . The owner was also a lovely gentleman , we had a nice chat to him . We also used the spa , had a lovely massage , and used the hot tub , sauna & steam room . Everything was as very clean & today in the hotel & spa . We will definitely be coming back to this hotel , as we enjoyed every minute of our stay .

The Lake Country House and Spa is a traditional country house retreat set in an area of rural beauty in Mid Wales near Builth Wells. The extensive grounds have a river flowing along the edge and a waterfall amongst the shrubbery. There is an ora of tranquility, which is enhanced in the spa. In some respects the set up is very old fashioned, and in parts dated, but this adds to the experience. It is so different to the chain hotel idea of luxury. It feels genuine and welcoming. Reception was warmed by a log fire. There was information for local tourist attractions and details of walks from the hotel. The spa is in the grounds of the hotel with a view of the small lake and water birds from the hot tub. The small cafe area shares this view. The pool is large enough for lap swimming. There are loungers by the pool, which was the only negative. They were uncomfortable. There is a steam room and sauna. Towels, slippers and gowns are provided, but gowns were also in the room. There are a range of spa treatments on offer in the quiet wooden treatment rooms. Price list available. Bedrooms are in the main building or nearby lodge building. We have stayed in both. All rooms are large with seating areas. The large bathroom had the soft towels and quality toiletries expected at this price point. Plenty of hot water. Everything clean. Comfortable large bed. Kettle with coffee sachets and a choice of teas. We didn't turn on the TV. Some rooms are classed as accessible, but many rooms are reached by steep stairs in the main building. Staff were keen to help carry the bags. Staff in all areas were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Dinner was excellent. Good food and service. No rushing. Pre dinner drinks with canapés by the log fire in the lounge area started the evening off well. There is a long wine list, including a choice of house wines by the glass. Breakfast is served in the airy conservatory with views to the grounds and the hills beyond. A choice of hot breakfast items were cooked to order and served at the table with juices, fruits, pastries, yoghurt, cereal etc available on the buffet. Freshly-made tea and coffee were served at the table. The drive to Lake Country House takes one through beautiful Welsh countryside, but some sat nav routes will bring one over the Epynt Ranges where there may rarely be road closures. There are sign posts to the hotel on closely roads. Llangammarch Wells railway station is walking distance from the hotel. There is adequate parking in the grounds. Within our budget considerations, this is a hotel for a special occasion. It felt special and money well spent. Excellent customer service, which we have not experienced for a very long time despite extensive travelling.We may well return for our next special anniversary.

Myself and two friends visited the hotel as a celebration of 50 years of friendship I had read a very disparaging review and was shocked as it had nothing good to say at all I can only say that my experience was completely the opposite and I am not a friend or family member of the owners Nothing was too much trouble for the staff who delivered with natural willingness and professionalism The rooms grounds and spa were spectacular and food delicious with good quality ingredients I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and it was perfect for our special celebration Thankyou

Super relaxing break. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. The room was cosy, quiet and clean. As a vegan I was very impressed with the efforts made to accommodate our needs, the food was superb - nothing was too much trouble. Even sausages for our two dogs. Thank you to everyone at the Lake Country House Hotel for a wonderful break.

Great hotel , spa is included. Booked a treatment and found it to be really relaxing and therapeutical. Great view over the hills.

We stayed there to celebrate my 60th birthday.What a beautiful part of Wales.The surrounding area is so beautiful.The hotel has many original features.The staff are so polite and nothing was too much trouble for them,from the minute we walked in.The room was to the level expected for this fine establishment.We had an evening meal which was amazing.from the minute we walked in everyone was so friendly and we were. made to feel welcome,such a relaxing experience.

The service at this venue is superb. From the minute we walked in we were made to feel welcome by Rosie. She took the time to show us around the main building explaining where things were and even walked us to our room, the personal touch was really nice. The spa facilities were lovely and to be able to sit outside in the hot tub watching the kites was fantastic. The food was absolutely stunning and the canapé onion bhaji, were simply perfect. Woyld definitely recommend a trip here to relax and unwind. Hope to be back soon

We recently stayed for 2 nights at the Lake Country Hotel in a house suite. Check-in was pleasant and easy, and the room was enormous! The lodge itself has plenty of character - it’s a bit creaky in parts but we loved it. Breakfast was wonderful; service all around was on point. We had one early dinner in the lounge from the lounge menu, and one dinner in the restaurant- both quite nice. However the highlight of our trip was a visit to their spa. Situated by a small lake, the spa was clean and well kept. Service was really good - we had booked two massages and these were the best of our trip. After the massages, we headed upstairs to the outdoor (covered) hot tub overlooking the lake - what a treat to enjoy in the cool early spring! Overall we had a lovely visit and would return. One suggestion - I would consider offering a slightly more expansive menu (perhaps a burger or pie option) in the lounge in evenings - we loved the informal lounge ambiance and tend to eat our larger meals during the day (I suspect others may be the same) so would prefer a less formal a la carte option.

Beautifully located lovely hotel, friendly and helpful staff, excellent food and breakfast range. Spacious and comfortable rooms. We would definitely return
