Sightseeing
Probably the number 1 attraction in Brecon Beacons National Park, the waterfalls walk can be very busy, but the waterfalls are well worth seeing. You can actually walk behind the curtain of water at this one, Sgyd Yr Eira.

Hay On Wye is the nicest small town around here. It is well worth a trip any day of the week but really comes to life on a Thursday when it's market day. It is famous for it's book shops but there are plenty of other quirky independent shops selling all manner of things. It's 12 miles from the house.
