Tony runs the place and was very welcoming. It is a lovely property in a wonderful setting with plenty of parking for guests. I had a really nice room with a great shower and very comfy bed. The place is very near to some good dining options for the evening. Cooked breakfast was ok but overall a very pleasant stay which I would use again for sure.

Bright, clean and spacious room. Located right off the highway but in a lovely green space hidden away. The room was big with a large ensuite. It is a little dated but perfectly kept and clean and absolutely everything you could need - even an iron. Slept really well which is what you need when travelling. I would definitely stay here again.

We visited Wales to attend a family funeral, and Hazelwood quickly became a haven of peace, comfort, and warmth for us during a difficult time. The innkeeper Tony was so caring and thoughtful and made sure that every detail of our stay was just perfect. We will be back to Wales for otrher family events, and we will never stay anywhere else. Thank you, Tony, for creating such a lovely home away from home!

The location is excellent, very peaceful. There is a railway line next to the property but it didn't appear to be a mainline and didn't bother us, even though we slept with our windows open (a great bonus these days). Sadly we were unable to taste the breakfast as we had an early appointment, but I am sure it is as good as the property is. Our appointment was in Cardiff and the guest house is a good location as we were very near the M4 and it took only about 40 minutes to get there. The room price was great so I would recommend this property as a good place to stop whether you are travelling to Bridgend, Cardiff or Newport.
