There are so many things to see and do in and around Llanrhaeadr. Here is a taste...

 

St Dogfan's church in Llanrhaeadr, where, over 400 years ago, William Morgan first translated the bible in to the Welsh language

 

 

 

 

Lake Vyrnwy is a beautiful place to visit and offers boating, cycling, birdwatching, craft shops, cafes and a sculpture park, as well as some lovely walks, like the one to Pistyll Rhyd-y-Meincau (Rhiwargor waterfall) below

 

 

  Take a short drive just a few miles beyond the village of Llangynog to visit Pennant Melangell; a lovingly restored church containing the only saint's shrine of the Romanesque period known to have survived in Britain, and a fascinating Welsh legend. Click here to find out more.       

Two splendid National Trust properties, Chirk Castle and Powys Castle are both about 35 minutes drive from Eirianfa and another, Erddig, is about ten miniutes further at Wrexham. Click on the photos to go to The National Trust website.
