SWB Weekender 18th - 20th May 2012

Here!!! :)):

Who's up for a SWB weekender then...?? :)): :)):

Hollybush Inn is a lovely country pub alongside the River Wye near the Brecon Beacons, offering B&B, camping AND tipis!! :)): :)): With great facilities ie toilet/shower block, they also have FIRE PITs and canoe hire too! Camping is just £7 pppn, tipis £15 pppn and B&B from £55 pn....there are four tipis to hire, available as 2 person, 4, 6, and ten...although I'm told you can get more people in each if required! Coconut matting inside, they also come equipped with chimneas too :)): just bring bedding!

The plan....?

Arrive anytime on the Friday, maybe even do a shortish bimble somewhere...? :)):

Saturday Mr Smiler is going to do a rideout taking in the stunning roads and scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park, including a lunch stop (there might even be cake!! lol) Saturday night, back at the pub, food + beers in the beer gardens/around a fire pit?

Sunday gives people plenty of time to return home.. :)):

It might be an idea if some of you want to get together and organise sharing a tipi...?

For booking, please contact either Barbara or Nigel @ Hollybush Inn - I have asked if we can all be sited close (ish!) together which she said is fine (just say Smiler sent you!!!) The owners are VERY biker friendly!!

The idea of this weekend is for a relaxed social and to have some fun! Everyone is welcome!! So...who's in..? :ymhug:

definitely pencil me in... I'll leave being penned in until April. Might have a little home improvement project on my hands by then. Depends on Architects and planning applications....

Though the weekend does sound awesome. Looked at the Hollybush website. Great find!!!
