St Mary's Church, Builth Wells

Highlight • Religious Site

St Mary's is a pretty church in the heart of Builth Wells. The tower dates to the 14th century and the nave, south aisle and chancel were built in 1875 to replace the former structure. Stained glass in the east wall was created by famed designer Charles Eamer Kempe in 1877. In the porch is the effigy of John Lloyd, ‘squire to the body’ of Elizabeth I.

Builth Wells is a pretty market town in the heart of Mid Wales. Situated at the meeting of the Rivers Irfon and Wye.

If you're staying awhile, shop's, cafe's and usual facilities are available, with the Builth Castle (earthworks only now surviving) providing good panoramic views over the town.

Builth Wells

Highlight • Settlement

The small town in Wales is situated near the river Wye and invites you for a short break. There are some restaurants and if you don’t want to spend too much time, I recommend a stop at the Coop (the supermarket is integrated into a gas station, but has everything you need) followed by a break in the beautiful park, which you can hardly miss, because the cycle path leads right through it.
