As well as providing opportunities for walking, mountain biking, fishing and hunting in the summer, it is also an excellent base for exploring the surrounding areas.

Rating
4 out of 5

Feb Skiing 2009

Kent's and James's Monmouth, Wales
Review Submitted: March 3, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
Thanks for a great weeks skiing. Helped by having the best conditions of the year. Everything as expected, clean tidy although there were a few maintence problems. Not all the showers were hot. Food was good, filling if basic. (But when in Bulgaria!!) But made up for by the wine that came with! Orgainisation was good, everything ran like clockwork although a welcome information sheet would have been nice. Everone turned up when expected and transfers were good. Children (6-10yrs) really enjoyed their first time! Great place for beginners or intermd skiiers on the cheap. Really good for family groups where kids can go onto bed and the adults can talk through the days adventures. Opposite the gondola so great for access to the slopes. Would go again!!
