HISTORIC HOUSES
The National Trust's Newton House on the Dinefwr estate can be seen from your balcony, and just down the road the gothic designed Gelli Aur Country Park. Visit the British Birds of Prey centre at the National Botanical Gardens, that lie within and around the walled manor at Middleton Hall. Not to mention the jewel in the crown, the Aberglasney Gardens in Llangathen. All this within ten miles of your home away from home!
HIKING
A large network of footpaths, for walkers of all abilities, right on your door step.
MOUNTAIN BIKING
Brechfa is the perfect destination for both pootlers or those who like to ride totally pinned. The Gorlech Trail, designed by Rowan Sorrell, is made up of three big climbs and descents stretching over its 19km. More progressive riders can also test their full arsenal of skills on the fearsome but thrilling features of the black graded Raven Trail!
In contrast, the Derwen Trail is the starting point for families and novices and a great introduction to mountain biking.
All trails show off Brechfa Forest at its best.
