We recently joined in with the fantastic annual balloon festival in Llandovery. We had lots of balloonists staying here at The Castle and couldn't resist popping in and out to watch the elegant things gently wafting overhead. How serene and beautiful they are, silently floating with only the gentle wooshing sound as the burners keep them airborne. Amazingly calming.

We've been smiling all week and there's a new, healthy spring in our steps following last weeks' visit by HRH Prince Charles to The Castle. He delivered a strong, simple, encouraging message to all of us in Llandovery and what he had to say, makes a lot of sense for rural communities like ours.

Last Friday 2nd March we were extremely honoured to welcome HRH the Prince of Wales to the Castle hotel in Llandovery. Before entering the hotel the Prince took a long look at our specials board and commented that our prices looked ‘extremely good value’ which raised a few smiles and relaxed everybody.

The sun is coming out, the temperature is rising and we feel that Spring is on the horizon. People are starting to venture out again and we think its worth extolling the virtues of Llandovery as its a veritable hub of activity, increasingly attracting visitors due to its unique location right at the heart of the mountains, rivers and forests of South West Wales. The longer we spend here at The Castle, the more we keep uncovering, the more impressed we become.

The Brecon Beacons has been a long loved mountain bike destination for years, but recently has really moved up several gears to offer the complete package for weekend warriors. Upgraded trails and new routes, we've got outstanding facilities all set in the beautiful and wild Brecon hills. Its got the lot, ride open forests, bone shaking moorland, steep climbs and hairy descents.

Recently, we've had the Top Gear team staying at Peterstone Court, while they filmed a 'Help for Heroes' special with the army at the Sennybridge Training Centre. We've also had a BBC Drama crew staying with us at The Manor while they filmed a new Shakespeare period drama locally at the historic, medieval Tretower Court.
