Welcome to this, Mid Wales, Welshpool, Exploring Wales vlog.
In this Exploring Wales vlog, we focus on mid Wales, and take a look around Welshpool, Powys, and see what it has to offer.
Have you ever been to Welshpool? Are you looking for things to see and do in Welshpool? If so, this is the mid Wales, Welshpool vlog for you.
We start the day by heading down to mid Wales to Welshpool, where we board and take a journey on the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway.
The Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway is a charming narrow-gauge steam railway that takes passengers on a nostalgic journey through the stunning Welsh countryside. With its vintage locomotives and quaint stations, this beloved heritage railway offers a unique glimpse into Wales' industrial past while showcasing the breath taking landscapes of Mid Wales. Whether you're a railway enthusiast or simply seeking a picturesque adventure, the Welshpool and Llanfair Light Railway promises an unforgettable experience for all ages.
#midwales #welshpool #powiscastle #walesvlog
We had an hour to look around the beautiful town of Llanfair Caereinion, a beautiful, sleepy little mid Wales town, where we wandered and took a look at the beautiful St Mary's Church.
Llanfair Caereinion, nestled amidst the serene landscapes of Mid Wales, is a quaint town brimming with Welsh charm and allure. Steeped in history, this picturesque town boasts a rich tapestry of heritage, evident in its ancient stone buildings, winding streets, and inviting community spirit. From its humble beginnings as a medieval settlement to its bustling market town days, Llanfair Caereinion has evolved into a vibrant hub for culture and commerce.
Wander through the town's historic centre, where traditional Welsh architecture meets modern amenities, and discover a treasure trove of local shops, cosy cafes, and welcoming pubs. Stroll along the peaceful banks of the River Banwy, or explore the surrounding countryside, where rolling hills and verdant valleys stretch as far as the eye can see.
Whether you're a history buff, nature enthusiast, or simply seeking a tranquil escape, Llanfair Caereinion beckons with its timeless beauty and warm hospitality. Experience the magic of Mid Wales in this charming town, where every corner tells a story and every visit leaves a lasting impression.
Next up is a trip into the charming mid Wales town of Welshpool, where we take a look around the town, including the famous, Cockpit - one of the only remaining Cock Fighting buildings, that is now the Welshpool Women's Institute.
Welshpool, nestled in the heart of Mid Wales, is a town steeped in history and brimming with character. Dating back to the medieval period, Welshpool boasts a rich heritage, evident in its charming streets lined with historic buildings and quaint market squares. Today, Welshpool continues to enchant visitors with its vibrant atmosphere, welcoming locals, and a wealth of attractions that showcase its unique blend of tradition and modernity.
It was then time to continue our mid Wales adventure and continue exploring Wales and Welshpool, with a visit to the stunning Powis Castle.
This is what Wikipedia has to say about Powis Castle;
Powis Castle (Welsh: Castell Powys) is a medieval castle, fortress and grand country house near Welshpool, in Powys, Wales. The seat of the Herbert family, earls of Powis, the castle is known for its formal gardens and for its interiors, the former having been described as "the most important", and the latter "the most magnificent", in the country. The castle and gardens are under the care of the National Trust. Powis Castle is a Grade I listed building, while its gardens have their own Grade I listing on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales.
We hope you've enjoyed exploring mid Wales with us, in this Welshpool vlog and seen some of the things you can see and do in Welshpool.
As always, we sum up the day with a well deserve drink at home, as we, 'Cheers To The Good Times' x

This looked so much fun guys, and can we just say, well done on the choice of snacks 😋👌. Who doesn't love a toasted tea cake. Scenery along the way was beautiful, such lush green grass 💚. Throw in a castle, and a Welshpool (love the story of the naming of btw😂), along with a couple of handsome peacocks, and you have another throughly entertaining postcard vlog🤗🦚 🏰. Don't know how you do it, but you keep us all enthralled week after week. Roll on Dorset! That looked amazing from your photos, we can't wait to watch the videos!

The railway had a previous town section and you can near enough walk the whole route from Raven square back through the town centre to where the original station which connected to the main line was located (between Tesco’s and the new bypass).

Welshpool!? Is there anywhere in the UK that doesn't have an Aussie place name? We accidently stumbled on a cock fighting ring in Vietnam. Just in a residential area away from the tourists. Our homestay was nearby so that is how we saw it. We heard cocks crowing all the time. Little bastards started at midnight. The mildly annoying crowing had a sadly sinister sound to it after we discovered cock fighting was still a thing. I've been watching The Last Kingdom and the 4th season ventures into Wales. They use the old names so it is Waleas (or something). Anyway they pronounce it Whale Ass. No I did not snicker one bit.... well maybe just a bit. Lovely train ride. The countryside is gorgeous.

Whale Ass 🤣. Brilliant. Bet you wanted to strangle that cock (not a sentence I thought I'd ever write! 🤣). Yep sorry about the place names, we can't help ourselves!! Cheers for watching, it was a lovely train ride. 🍻

Cheeky lot! We get fed up with looking for stuff in Welshpool (our nearest town) and getting results from some modern upstart country in the Southern hemisphere! Aussie place names indeed! I wonder if there is anywhere in Wales that really is named after an Aussie place?

Enjoy! Todays video is mid wales, so down a fair bit from where you're planning to visit, but still doable if you want to. 🍻
