Description
Pengenffordd is a small, rural hamlet sitting between the larger communities of Llangorse, Crickhowell and Talgarth in the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park. Dragons Back – a popular local walking spot can be accessed from the Dinas Castle Inn at Pengenffordd and is often used to access Waun Fach, renowned for being the highest peak of the Black Mountains. The local village of Llangorse is a haven for outdoor sports enthusiasts, with Llangorse Multi Activity Centre offering trekking and horse-riding lessons as well as comprehensive indoor climbing facilities. Llangorse lake – the largest natural lake in South Wales, is popular for water sports and a thriving sailing club hosts regular regattas as well as RYA courses for those wishing to develop their sailing skills.
Talgarth has its own primary school Ysgol Y Mynydd Du and the location has excellent road access to the Welsh medium primary school in Brecon as well as local high schools including Brecon, Crickhowell, Gwernyfed and Christ College.

independent boutique shops, pubs, restaurants, and grocery stores while there are larger supermarkets in Brecon and Waitrose a little further away in Abergavenny.
Brecon, Crickhowell and Talgarth are equally popular with families and retirees alike with active communities using the many available societies, sports and social clubs.
The 5th century town of Talgarth renowned for being the royal residence of King Brychan of Brycheiniog with its local butchers, greengrocer and artisan bakery located in the historic flour mill, is another popular local choice for the weekly food shop and is en route to Hay on Wye – the ‘Book Capital of the World’, and home of the globally renowned literary festival.
