**Who are we?**

Llechwen Hall Hotel is 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, 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 farmhouse, to a private Welsh long-house and once, even a small primary school.
