What to do and see in Wales, Wales: The Best Coffeehouses

The Bleddfa Centre for the Creative Spirit is set in the heart of the Radnorshire Hills. The Centre is run by the Bleddfa Trust, a charity helping people gain a deeper understanding of self and the world through the visual arts, philosophy and study of the relationship between creativity and spirituality. The Centre runs a variety of events and exhibitions throughout the year, operating from two buildings on the same site. Old School House houses the gallery, gift shop and Reading Room cafe, and Hall Barn offers a versatile event space for workshops, classes, concerts, film screenings, meditation, yoga, lectures, and is available for hire for weddings and other parties. Please note the Centre is open from Easter to Hallowe'en only, except for special events. See our website for up to date information.
