What's on in Cwmrhaiadr

Powys, Wales

Quiz nights where the debate over question 7 lasts longer than the quiz itself. Coffee mornings that turn into proper natter sessions. Craft fairs where you'll actually find something worth buying instead of the usual tat. That's Cwmrhaiadr, and we've got it all listed — from book clubs to bingo, farmers' markets to film screenings. The sort of events where you'll probably bump into someone you know, which is either brilliant or your worst nightmare depending on whether you've been dodging Dave from the parish council.
