A special thank you to the catering team who produced a fantastic set of meals. A beautiful range of locally sourced, locally grown, and organic produce prepared and cooked to perfection.

You couldn’t get better!

The historic campus at Lampeter is a gorgeous location for conferences, festivals, evening concerts, workshops and even retreats. We found all the staff to be helpful, efficient, and friendly right from reserving space to the final invoice. The older buildings made for an atmospheric environment that was particularly suited to our small event, with catering to suit. If you’re looking for somewhere a little different, steeped in Welsh heritage, you couldn’t get better.

Very nice place, and the staff are wonderful.

Excellent service easy to use and enjoy the quality of your business.

Great service from friendly helpful staff. Surroundings are spotless and comfortable. Food is of high quality. Open to the public. Highly recommend.
