I along with four of my friends stayed for 2 nights so we could spend the weekend mountain biking in the forest. The welcome when we arrived at the lodge was a warm one and the rooms were exactly as shown and described on the website.
The food was excellent, just what we needed for a hard weekend in the forest mountain biking.
The trails in Afan forest are awesome and just a stones throw from the lodge. Both i and my friends will be visiting the lodge again in the near future and i will be recommending it to others.
Neil Gray stayed for 2 nights.
