 | The Halfway Inn stands half-way along the main A4120 road between Aberystwyth and Devil's Bridge, with spectacular views over the Rheidol Valley, eastward towards Plynlimon, northward towards Cadair Idris and Snowdonia, and westward towards the sunsets over Cardigan Bay. It is a friendly, old-fashioned pub, rural but not isolated; the bar contains a pool table and a darts board, and stocks real ales and three varieties of cider. Generous helpings of traditional food are served in the restaurant in the evenings all year round (except Mondays when we are closed). And at lunchtime every day (except on Mondays) from Easter to December; during the winter months, lunch is available at weekends only. The busy seaside town of Aberystwyth, Devil's Bridge (with its waterfalls and the Vale of Rheidol narrow-gauge railway), Nant-yr-arian (for walking, cycling, and watching the red kite), Llywernog (for the mining museum), Cwm Rheidol (for woodland walks, fishing and riding), and the hills, valleys, moors and beaches of mid-west Wales, are all within easy reach. There are two comfortable bedrooms with the usual services, one (overlooking the valley) with a double bed, the other with twin beds. Customers are welcome to camp in the garden overnight, free of charge; facilities for the washing and safe storage of mountain bikes can be made available.
Pisgah was the mountain from which Moses looked out into the Promised Land. Visit the Halfway Inn at Pisgah (Ceredigion) and look out into our promised land.
