The Manor Hotel

The Manor Hotel is a family-run hotel on Brecon Road, on the edge of the market town of Crickhowell in the Brecon Beacons National Park. It has views over the valley towards Table Mountain, and it offers licensed ceremonies and receptions under one roof.

Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples

It is a strong fit for couples who want a personal, small-scale wedding in a mountain setting. The hotel hosts one wedding per day and can be exclusively yours, so you are not sharing the building with another party. It also offers a later twilight format, which suits couples who prefer an evening ceremony and a relaxed celebration to a traditional daytime schedule.

Ceremonies

You can marry in the Manor Suite, or in the Beacons room if you want a more intimate feel. Outdoor ceremonies are possible when the weather allows. The hotel is licensed for both ceremonies and receptions.

Receptions and food

The menu includes canapes, wedding breakfast options and evening food, and a free tasting helps you choose. Twilight weddings include a hog roast or barbecue for guests. The hotel publishes several package levels, from intimate and boutique weddings to larger, more exclusive days, along with food and drinks options.

Staying

There are 22 individually styled bedrooms on site, so close family and friends can stay over. The hotel is dog friendly, which is useful if a pet is part of your day.

Getting there and the area

The hotel stands on Brecon Road, within the national park and surrounded by green hills. Crickhowell sits on the River Usk between Abergavenny and Brecon, with the Black Mountains and the Brecon Beacons close by. The hotel is on the outskirts of town, so guests can walk or drive into the centre. Pubs, shops and walking routes are close, which gives out-of-town guests something to do before and after the wedding.

The hotel has also been a finalist at the Welsh National Wedding Awards in recent years, and the team publishes its packages and food options as downloads so you can compare them at home before you visit.
