A walkers paradise, the nearest peaks to our Holiday Home are Hay Bluff (Capel-y-ffin) and Lord Hereford's Knob (Twmpa). Both a short drive away, a short steep climb to the top but with rewarding fresh air and far reaching views. Llangorse lake can be seen from the top of Twmpa, a glacial lake, also open to visitors.

Although now a 900-year-old ruin, it’s easy to see from these extensive remains that Llanthony was one of Wales’s great medieval buildings. In particular, its former magnificence lives on in the surviving richly decorated red stonework and superb row of pointed archways, which frame a scene that has changed little since de Lacy’s times.
