The rural heart of Wales is delightfully unspoilt, with undulating green hills, secluded valleys and lush forests nestled between the rugged Ceredigion coast and the imposing Cambrian Mountains. The charm of Mid Wales is its tranquil atmosphere which feels a million miles away from the bustling urban centre of Cardiff – it is truly a place to escape from it all and fully relax amongst the splendour of nature, and nowhere is this more striking than in the beautiful Brecon Beacons. Nearby, history abounds in The Welsh Marches, with quaint timbered buildings lining the streets of Ludlow and the nearby 'Black and White Villages'.
