The Flowers of Wales
Across the entire UK, spring has sprung! And one of the signs of that is the unmistakable and beautiful white blossom of the blackthorn!
Mid-Wales has many farmland hedges filled with beautiful blooming blackthorns! Come to this often overlooked corner to see not only beautiful blossoms in the hedgerows, but many cultural and natural attractions too!
Getting there: the main roads through Mid-Wales are the A470 and A483, if you’d prefer the train, there are stations in the following towns and villages: Welshpool, Newtown, Caersws, Machynlleth.
What to do: In Welshpool, you can visit Powys Castle; Newtown has the Oriel Davies Art Gallery; Machynlleth is the ancient capital of Wales and has the Parliament House of the rebel Prince Owain Glyndŵr#uk #wales #blossom #nature #flowers

Perfect day out
Immerse in History #waleshistory and visit the amazing Powis Castle. ##walestravel Make sure you have the time to admire the Clive Museum, have a stop at the coffee shop (seat outdoors, weather permitting) and take in the view. Then walk down to the gardens, beautiful at the time of visit (late July) but I guess they would be fantastic at any time of the year! During the summer, garden games are enjoyed by young and not-so young visitors, with plenty of space for everybody to enjoy.
