A little history
Powis Castle — a red sandstone fortress rising above formal terraced gardens — is one of the National Trust's finest properties in Wales. The terraced gardens are among the most outstanding in Britain. The Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway is a narrow-gauge heritage line through beautiful Mid Wales countryside.
Powis Castle and gardens (NT) are genuinely outstanding — the castle interior and terraced gardens are magnificent. The W&L Light Railway for a charming narrow-gauge trip. The Monday livestock market for authentic Welsh farming character.
