Llansanffraed Cwmdeuddwr, Rhayader, LD6 5AR (View on Google Map)

An old stone inn, popular locally for its food and ales.

There has been a pub here since the 16th century, originally the named Tafarn-y-Rhyd (Tavern on the Ford) and favoured by drovers on the Hereford to Aberystwyth drive. It is a snug little inn with low ceilings and interconnecting spaces. The nickname, 'The Pit', comes from the need to stand in a pit to play darts. The toilets are across the road.

Self contained accommodation is available in a separate cottage opposite the pub.

Asset of Community Value

Partially timber-clad (possibly 17th.century). Although altered inside, there are three small distinct places to drink including the lobby inside the front door facing the servery. This tiny area has some wall benches attached to old tongue-and-grooved dado panelling and a counter that looks like the work of c.1960. For the most interesting feature look for the trap door in the left-hand room which reveals a shallow square pit for darts players to stand in. Without this, due to the low ceiling, the darts would hit the beams. Another curiosity is the loos - not just outside, but actually across the road. Has a self-catering cottage that sleeps 3.
