Returning guests at the Lodge, and I've no doubt we'll be back again! A perfect, peaceful base to explore Bannau Brycheiniog with loads of villages, castles and walks to explore within driving distance! When you come back, the hot tub and view over the lake with all the wildlife is a real treat. Well-equipped kitchen and comfy accommodation generally, and very generous, friendly hosts. A BBQ in a little pocket of sunshine was also a memorable experience! Couldn't recommend more highly. Can't wait to come back.
