Packed with museums and galleries, Newtown is the perfect place for those that love history and culture. The Newtown Textile Museum transports you back into the industrial history of how 19th century handloom weavers lived. Just 15 minutes down the road from the textile museum you’ll find the Mid Wales Arts Centre, which is home to a unique collection of sculptures and paintings. The Centre is free to enter and regularly hosts new and exciting exhibitions and events.
Gregynog Hall is an imposing country mansion surrounded by 750 acres of stunning grounds. This beautiful, historic estate welcomes visitors through its grand doors every year. The formal gardens are listed Grade 1 and it’s no wonder they are so popular with their impressive collection of David Austin roses, striking sculptures and sweeping lawns. This is one of Newtown’s truly hidden treasures.
