Amazing trip

Tenby did not disappoint and the Broadmead boutique B&B was lovely. Spotlessly clean with everything you could possibly need and the best cooked breakfast ever. Staff were friendly and bent over backwards to help. We could not have hoped for better weather and the icing on the cake was that I was able to visit my old teacher training college (now part of Cardiff university) on the way home. I had not been near it since I left in 1982 and it was lovely to see very little had changed. Our daughter had bought us the two night stay for Christmas and it was definitely a great choice.

Really good gift

Received as Xmas gift. Booking was trouble free. The pod we had was lovely and clean. Had double bed, fridge, kettle and toaster. Take your own bedding, towels. Toilet and showers were really clean and tidy. Yes I certainly would recommend Bainside camping and fishing. Really nice place. Will be returning.

Lovely gift and hotel

This was a lovely gift to receive for me and my dog. My mum came aswel and decided to go to somerset. The lordleaze is a lovely hotel. Quiet, nice staff and a lovely breakfast which wasn't included with this voucher but worth having. I had to pay a £50 supplement as went peak time and £10 extra per night for the dog. Nice views of fields from mine and mums bedroom. Lots of places to let dogs walk outside.
