Brecon Beacons Holiday Cottage for 2
The Royal Welsh Winter Fair takes place every year at the end of November in the Builth Wells showground. There are livestock and dead stock competitions after which you have a chance to buy your Christmas dinner. In addition there are stands offering all sorts of ideas for presents from many local suppliers.
The Abergavenny Food Festival is held every year in September.
The festival is held over two days and is the largest one in the area. Not only can you sample foods from Wales and many other places , there are master classes, cooking demonstrations and every new kitchen gadget you can imagine. It can get fairly busy so there is now a night market as well just in case you missed trying something during the day.
The Nation
al Eisteddfod was held in Abergavenny. It ran from 29th July to 6th August 2016. It showcases everything Welsh but do not worry it is not all in Welsh. There are beautiful displays of the crafts and music of Wales with concerts happening throughout the day. There is something for everyone and quite possibly a good source of unique gifts for Christmas.
Winter
