Llanidloes

This modest Welsh town in Powys sits at the first point on the River Severn, counting from the source, and makes a reasonable base for the surrounding mountain terrain. Known informally as Llani, Llanidloes has a handful of cafés and restaurants and several historic churches for a settlement its size, along with a strong visual character that rewards photography. Two walking routes — Sarn Sabrina and Semi Sabrina — were created in 2006 and start from the town.
