Places to Visit

For Eating In or Out: There's the Patio Diner and Bar with a sun terrace and the 'Cambrian Entertainment Room' where you can relax in the evening with a drink at the Bar or enjoy the music and dancing together with a visiting Cabaret (17th July-27th August, 2004) in the Cambrian Showbar.

In Borth itself there are a couple of public houses, and 'Angelina's' which is a new coffee lounge and just round the corner from the railway station. In Bow Street there is a very nice pub/restaurant called the 'Welsh Black' where you can enjoy good food freshly cooked whilst you wait (in summer it is advisable to book a table).

Places of interest in the area include:

  • The Elan Valley Lakes
  • The Rheidol Narrow Gauge Steam Railway
  • The Devil's Bridge Waterfalls
  • Forest Walks and Nature Trails

  • The Centre for Alternative Technology Nr Machynlleth is also very well worth paying a visit to.
