The local area
For a Welsh version - click here
The Talbot is an ideal base for exploring the local area. In Tregaron itself are Rhiannon’s Gold Centre, Cambrian Art Gallery, Red Kite Centre and Cors Caron, Britain’s largest rising peat bog. Five minutes up the road is Pentre Bach, where the childrens programme featuring Sali Mali and Jac y Jwc is filmed (and incidentally where both Graham and Shan were brought up!). Further afield are Mid Wales Activity Centre, Strata Florida Abbey, Devil’s Bridge Falls and the historic towns of Aberystwyth to the north and Lampeter and Carmarthen to the south.
As mentioned before, all outdoor pursuits are very popular in the area. Fishing, walks (both guided and rambling) and shooting can be arranged through the hotel.
