Pistyll Rhaedr tearoom visitors are raving about on TikTok
Social media is raving about a "charming" little tearoom in Powys which boasts "the best waterfall view in Wales".
Pistyll Rhaeadr is a popular waterfall, located in the Berwyn Mountains, just inside the Powys border, west of Oswestry.
At 240ft (80m), it is Britain's tallest single-drop waterfall.
Despite often being referred to as a " hidden gem", it is a popular UK tourist attraction, even being described on Tripadvisor as "one of the country's seven wonders".

Tan-y-Pistyll Tearoom has a "cosy and rustic" appearance with many original 18th-century features, according to its website.
It also offers a "homely and easygoing" atmosphere for customers.
The Tan-y-Pistyll Tearoom website adds: "Whether drinking hot chocolate around the log fire in winter or eating ice-creams and drinks outside in summer, one thing that is always commented on about Pistyll Rhaeadr is the friendliness found here."
There is seating indoors and outdoors, with a pagoda overlooking Pistyll Rhaeadr.
Despite only boasting a 2.7 (out of 5) rating on Tripadvisor from 41 reviews, Tan-y-Pistyll Tearoom has still received high praise from other customers online.
One visitor said: "After reading poor reviews of Tan-y-Pistyll Café, we were very pleasantly surprised to be given a warm welcome into what is a very charming cafe area.
"The toasted sandwich I chose was one of the best served with a fresh and varied side salad.
"Reports of the cafe only accepting cash were untrue, although on the odd occasion when the Wi-Fi signal is poor do they have to resort to cash only.
"I would definitely recommend a visit."
Another added: "Stopped for coffee and a cake after visiting the beautiful falls - both were excellent, decor delightful."
The Tan-y-Pistyll Tearoom has also been described by visitors as "cute" and a "lovely cafe full of character".
