The staunchly nationalistic area offers appealing outdoors opportunities. Canter on horseback through the rugged Brecon Beacons mountain range. Walk or cycle the charming valleys. Other draws are commanding Powis Castle near Welshpool and the Centre for Alternative Technology, a sustainable development center, near Machynlleth.

Warm and welcoming, this Newtown pub is full of character and almost always busy from opening to closing and normally full of lively chatter and laughter. Always a good selection of real ales from the local Monty's Brewery, and choice of ciders. I'm not a big drinker as I'm usually the designated driver, but I do like a nice little tipple now and again, and The Sportsman delivers. It's a loved gathering spot for locals, just off the main streets so this gem of a place is a hidden prize. No food is served by the establishment other than crisps, peanuts, pork rinds etc.. but there are at least 4 takeaway restaurants on the same block, I believe they don't mind if you eat it in the pub. Pool table and darts and lots of local characters to rub shoulders with, and refreshingly, NO KIDS! No swearing allowed sign when you walk in the door! Lovely, patient staff, well informed drink suggestions too.

What a fantastic cinema this is, friendly staff, cheap prices and comfy seating, Went to the re-opening night last night since Covid-19 and everything was in place. I travel about 25 miles regularly to come here and we are so lucky to have a cinema like this with all the latest releases. Glad to have the Regent Cinema reopened, missed it so much!!! Thank you

Great to see this pub back up and running after the previous owners failed miserably and have now moved on. The new owners are doing a brilliant job at getting the pub back on its feet. The atmosphere was good and the staff were friendly and attentive, looking forward to our next visit for Sunday lunch ????????
