Longbarn 3 bedroom bunkhouse
Liked: Argoed Lwyd has been a real retreat. We were greeted by ravens and red kites flying above the fields surrounding the Longbarn. The day bought hundreds of butterflies to the garden and in the evening bats could be seen and heard. The simplicity of the accommodation suited us. It is clean, well maintained and everything worked. The staff we contacted and met were helpful and very happy to give information about the local area. The view of Pen y fan from the barn is worth the cost alone. We would love to return again one day.
Disliked: Having to go home.
