Checked online in October 2026. Places marked "listed, not confirmed" appear on a public listing (OpenStreetMap, the National Trail, CAMRA, Pitchup or a guidebook update) but could not be confirmed on their own website. Pandy, Brompton Crossroads, Buttington Bridge, Chirk Mill, Llandegla and Bodfari have few or no beds: many hosts nearby collect walkers from the path and drop them back next morning, so ask when you book, and book ahead from May to September.
