Market towns of mid-Wales

Bookshops, ancient market squares and border towns scattered across rural Powys and Ceredigion.

Hay-on-Wye, with more than twenty bookshops, is both the National Book Town of Wales and home to the annual Hay Festival. Llandrindod Wells serves as the administrative centre of Powys, while Machynlleth sits in the Dyfi Valley and Builth Wells lies at the confluence of the Wye and Irfon. Presteigne and Knighton sit on the England-Wales border along the Rivers Lugg and Teme, and Llanwrtyd Wells, Llanidloes, Tregaron and Lampeter round out this trail of small market towns across Powys and Ceredigion.
