    “A comfortable, cosy and convenient place to stay for a chance to explore all the Brecon Beacons have to offer (and that is a great deal!”

    !) My friend and I had the wettest week imaginable, but Barn 2 was excellent in all aspects. Plenty of warmth and hot water, lovely quiet place and obviously, one of those dark sky areas. We were out all day every day bar one, when the Met Office recommended staying at home anyway. Ideal for anyone looking to make the most of the area. Thoroughly recommend this place, clean and providing everything one could need, including lots of space. Five star as far as we are concerned.
