Why choose a Powys weekend break or staycation?
Powys is the largest county of Wales, boasting pretty market towns, incredible lakes, dramatic mountains, cascading waterfalls, galleries, museums, and historical sites. The county borders the Snowdonia National Park, The Shropshire Hills AONB, and the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Powys is also home to some of the most delightful market towns in Wales, each boasting plenty of Welsh character and charm.
Montgomery is a lovely town that locals affectionately refer to as 'Monty.' It's a sleepy and peaceful retreat, with shops and boutiques, plenty of delicious places to eat, and beautiful streets to wander around. The town also has a Town Hall, the Bell Museum, and the 12th-century castle ruins perched on a hill overlooking the town.
Welshpool is another market town to add to your itinerary. It's nestled on the River Severn and has lots to see and do, both in town and just a short drive away.
Powis Castle and Garden is a National Trust property that overlooks the idyllic Severn Valley. Built around 1200 as a medieval fortress, the castle is home to incredible collections of paintings, sculptures, fabrics, and furniture. The gardens are lovely, offering a tranquil respite with exquisite surroundings. Don't miss a trip to Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway to hop on a historic steam train and go on a scenic tour through Mid Wales.
Another historic building you'll want to visit is the 900-year-old Tretower Court and Castle. Tucked away in the sweet town of Crickhowell in the Usk Valley, this haunting tower was built around 1100, and you can also see the medieval court, the Great Hall, and the 15th-century gardens.
If you're looking for adventure, you won't want to miss the award-winning National Showcaves Centre for Wales, set within the spectacular surroundings of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
You can explore the three incredible caves, Dan yr Ogof, Cathedral Cave, and Bone Cave, meet over 220 life-sized dinosaurs, pay the horses a visit at the Shire Horse Cente and Farm, discover fossils at the Fossil House, pan for gold, and let the little ones run wild in the playgrounds.
For more natural beauty, head to the amazing 90-foot-high Henrhyd Waterfall. Renowned for being the tallest in South Wales and its cameo as the entrance to the Bat Cave in The Dark Knight Rises, this waterfall is simply breathtaking. You can venture out on the 3.5-mile Henrhyd Falls and Nant Llech walk to see the natural spectacle and riverside setting.
Other must-see attractions include the fascinating ruins of Dolforwyn Castle, the tranquil beauty of Gilfach Nature Reserve, the spectacular Lake Vyrnwy on the edge of the Snowdonia National Park, and the scenic Elan Valley with its International Dark Sky Park status, to name a few!
To see it all for yourself, book one of our Powys log cabins and enjoy everything this remarkable county offers.
