Just a little note from us at The Green Bear

We always do our very best to reply to every enquiry as quickly as possible. However, between running the guesthouse, cooking for our guests and keeping everything ticking over, the odd message can occasionally slip through the net.

If you're waiting to hear back from us about a booking, enquiry or anything else, please don't hesitate to send us a follow-up message. Sometimes emails can also end up in spam or junk folders without us realising.

We're never intentionally ignoring anyone, so if you haven't had a reply, please give us a nudge and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.

We're feeling very lucky this week.
Three separate guests have left five-star reviews, mentioning everything from the comfort of the rooms and cottage to the vegan food, family-friendly atmosphere and the beauty of the local area.
Thank you for your kind words and for supporting our small family-run business. Every review is appreciated, and it's always lovely to hear that guests have enjoyed their time with us and hope to return.

We just got some great new reviews on Google and HappyCow, and we're so grateful to our guests for sharing their experiences; feedback like this really makes a big difference for a small business like ours

⭐️ Guest Review ⭐️
Receiving messages like this never gets old. 💚
"But the most amazing part of our stay was the food. Oh my goodness, the food! The love and skill that clearly goes into every plate is apparent."
We're so grateful to guests who take the time to share their experiences, and this lovely review from Kaylee, Lee and baby Jasper absolutely made our day.
From relaxing family breaks and exploring beautiful Mid Wales to indulgent vegan food and a warm welcome, this is exactly the experience we hope every guest enjoys when they stay with us.
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation. We loved having you stay and hope to welcome you back for longer than two nights next time! 💚🐻

We received another delightful review from guests who stayed for two nights accompanied by their dog, Kimico. We have hosted our second vegan veterinarian this week; we certainly hope to welcome more in the future.

Another review that made us smile 💚
"Phenomenal... the best vegan food ever served in a hotel or B&B. We can't wait to return."
Thank you so much for your kind words. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay in The Cottage.
We hope to see you again soon!

Autumn has arrived, and so has the Green Bear Guesthouse. We have finally framed the beautiful artwork provided by our lovely guests, and they look wonderful displayed in our guesthouse. We have also added new plants and pots, along with new bear-themed photos for the sofa in our snug area. We are delighted with the result and believe it creates a cozy space for our guests to enjoy. 🍁

🐻 An Update from The Green Bear
We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has recently followed, shared, enquired about, or booked a stay with us. We have experienced a wonderful surge in support over the past few weeks, and we are incredibly grateful.
As a result, we sincerely apologise if you've been waiting a little longer than usual for a reply. We are currently working through a high volume of messages and enquiries and will do our very best to respond to everyone within the next few days.
To ensure we can continue providing the warm, personal experience our guests know and love, we have made the difficult decision not to accept any further bookings for the remainder of this month. As a small family-run business, everything is managed by just the two of us, and recently, we've been working many 15-hour days, including several stretches of 20 consecutive days without a break.
Whilst we are incredibly thankful for your support, we're also mindful of the importance of looking after our own wellbeing and avoiding burnout. Taking a step back now will help us continue welcoming guests with the enthusiasm and care they deserve.
The good news is that we still have good availability throughout November and into the beginning of December, and we'd love to welcome you then.
We have also decided to close from 9th December until mid-January to spend some precious time with our family and enjoy a well-earned rest before returning refreshed for the new season.
Meeting so many wonderful guests, along with your equally wonderful dogs, has been one of the greatest joys of running The Green Bear. Thank you for your patience, kindness, and continued support. It truly means the world to us.

With gratitude,
Dan and Irene

We’ve been spoiled with kindness this week. Sarah and her mum left us a gorgeous hare card and a handwritten poem after their stay in The Hare room. And Badger — our four‑legged guest — wrote us the funniest thank‑you note about treats, river swims and short car journeys. Feeling very grateful for the lovely people (and pups!) who come through our door.
