Cottages in Builth Wells

Known for hosting what’s said to be the largest agricultural show in Europe, why wouldn’t you want to visit Builth Wells?

Located on the River Wye in the heart of Powys, Builth Wells is the perfect base for a holiday in the beautiful countryside of mid-Wales, and you don’t have to be crazy about farm animals to enjoy yourself here.

Within the town itself you’ll find a handful of independent shops ranging from general stores where you can purchase holiday essentials to traditional Welsh gift shops. There are also a number of tea rooms where you can sample the much loved Welsh Cake and a worthy selection of pubs and restaurants to while away an afternoon or evening, especially on a wet Welsh day.

When the sun does shine however, it’s important to make the most of the outdoor activities available for both visitors and locals. Play a few rounds of golf at the Builth Wells Golf Club, cheer from the sidelines at the Rugby Club, visit the Wyeside Arts Centre or pick up the Wye Valley Walk which runs through Builth Wells on its 136 mile route to Plynlimon, the source of River Wye and the highest peak in the Cambrian Mountains.

We have a lovely selection of cottages in this area from traditional stone farmhouse to large converted barns ideal for get-togethers with family and friends, and all are within an easy drive, or walk, of the town centre. So start planning your country escape in mid-Wales today with a cottage holiday in Builth Wells.
