Loads to see/do in this lovely part of the country Pete :y

For starters:
Big Pit: http://www.museumwales.ac.uk/bigpit/

Hereford's an easy drive. Nice city to stroll around/shop.

Brecon: Nice little country town. Maybe have a picnic/snack at the Promenade on the River Usk.
Call in at Llangorse Lake en-route.

For really good grub, you've gotta try the Lazy Days Cafe in Abergavenny town centre.
Brilliant service and great prices. We're never disappointed here!

The most important thing is to take several coats.
That way you can wear them in rotation as they dry out.

There's a friendly gliding club on the road down into Talgarth if you want a really good view of the countryside. :y

You have to go to Pizzorante for tea sometime. Simply the finest pizza restaurant Ive ever been in. Great food, brilliant service.

Big Pit is worth a visit too for sure :y
