Llandrindod Wells voted the happiest place in Wales

Llandrindod Wells is the happiest place to live in Wales, according to a survey by property website Rightmove.  And having visited, we can quite believe it!  Landrindod Wells is a firmly placed ‘hub’ of Wales and hive of activity. Branching out from its fine central location are a wealth of historic places & events, natural & manmade beauty spots and future promise.

In addition to the originality contained in the local arts and craft shops, the variety of products and services offered on and off the main streets there are numerous warm and welcoming restaurants and accommodation choices (B&B, Self catering, Hotel, Caravan – static and touring). Llandrindod Wells truly has a character born of its ‘Victorian Heyday’; a well maintained and rustic charm - but with all the modern conveniences.

The Powys spa town was 19th in the overall list for Britain, which was topped by fellow spa town Harrogate, in North Yorkshire.

Newport and Llandudno were second and third in list for the happiest places in Wales.

The report asked people how content they are with their own home and how it is decorated, how friendly their neighbours are, and how safe they feel in their local community.
