Bannau View bell tent
Liked: Stunning views that took our breath away! The bell tent is warm, clean, comfortable and finished to high standards. Little surprises that made our trip special which include an external kitchen, daisy shower and outside fire pit. We would highly recommend as nothing was too much trouble for our hosts. The breakfast pack with fresh homemade bread was amazing. We hope to be back to see you very soon.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike - we loved it!
