Things to see and do.

Discover the Elan Valley


This beautiful area, surrounding the pretty market town of Rhayader, is famous for its scenic dams and peaceful reservoir walks. You’ll be able to spot plenty of Red Kites as the breeding centre is close by. 

The Brecon Beacons


A perennial favourite with all our visitors, the renowned peaks of Corn Du, Pen y Fan and Cribyn attract hundreds of thousands of visitors a year and it’s not hard to see why. On a clear day the views from the top are breathtaking.

Builth Wells is a lovely little town full of individual shops and pubs and of course is the home of The Royal Welsh Show. The area is great for walking, cycling, fishing, horse riding, water activities and a whole lot more. We are approximately 30 minutes from the Brecon Beacons, 20 minutes from the amazing Elan Valley reservoirs and 15 minutes away from Llandrindod Wells Lake.
