So, if you’re planning a trip to this part of northwest Powys - which is in easy reach of any North Wales destination or cottage we have - anytime soon, make sure you add Machynlleth to your bucket list. This charming historic village offers visitors plenty of things to see and do.

The cinema is an obvious choice when the weather is grim, but why not try something a little different on your next trip? The Magic Lantern has been part of Tywyn since 1893 and was first used as the town assembly rooms and for badminton practise and variety performances.
