A hidden gem in the heart of the Cynon Valley. "Llechwen", a traditional Welsh word, translates as "White Slate" and it is thought that at some time in Llechwen Hall's history http://www.llechwen.co.uk/history.php, the building's roof was constructed with beautiful white slate. Originating as a charming country house, Llechwen Hall first became a hotel in 1990. In previous years the hall has had a variety of uses, from being a farm house, to a private Welsh long-house and once, even a small primary school. Current ownership of the hotel started in 2008 and since then Llecwhwen Hall has become a well established venue with a reputation for good food, friendly service, great weddings http://www.llechwen.co.uk/weddings.php and overall a luxurious Country House Hotel.
