We’re thinking of taking a w/end to ride the trails at Brechfa. Can anyone recommend some reasonably priced bike friendly B&B’s near there? There appear to be quite a few in Carmarthen, but I think we’d rather stay somewhere a little smaller and/or closer to Brechfa if possible.

Bike Brechfa is indeed great, but has a minimum booking for four, IIRC. Great people, though!
Some others to try;
Ty’r Cae – http://www.tyrcae.co.uk/
GlasFryn – http://www.orchardweb.co.uk/glasfryn/ – Stayed here recently, nice bunch! (Huge breakfast, good rugby knowledge and they were involved in the building of some of the trails too)

The Black Lion in Llansawel is great for a few beers and banter, food is only average at the moment, though.

Bike Brechfa seem to be not taking guests;

Try these, there’s a few around the area;
