24 of us had an amazing week at Bodweni Hall to celebrate. Plenty of space for everyone to do their own thing and to come together to enjoy social time. Table accommodated all 24 for of us. The weather wasn't so kind to us but we played on the Lake and the river regardless. Swimming in the river was great.

Fantastic large house a few miles from Bala. The large amount of bedrooms and bathrooms made it an ideal location for our family of 22 to gather .
