Builth Wells, also known by its Welsh name Llanfair-ym-Muallt, is a charming market town that serves as a great home base for exploring Mid-Wales. This is the perfect place for walking, pony trekking, and mountain biking, and it also has a lot of intriguing craft shops and collectors' fairs. The town has an intense 18-hole golf course, a sports complex, and the Wyeside Arts Centre, which hosts numerous live performances in addition to a movie theatre. The Royal Welsh Showground, located across the River Wye, is where the well-known Royal Welsh Show is held in July. There are also other events held there throughout the year. This fantastic location is a utopia for outdoor enthusiasts or those simply looking to unwind amidst gorgeous scenery, since Llandrindod Wells, a spa town, is only 8 miles away and the stunning Bannau Brycheiniog National Park (Brecon Beacons National Park) and Black Mountains are easily accessible. Builth Wells is a great starting point that serves as a gateway to Wales.
