Llyswen is situated in the Upper Wye Valley between three well known tourist towns of Hay on Wye (the Town of Books), Brecon (gateway to the Beacons) and Builth Wells (home of the Royal Welsh Show). We are ideally situated on the edge of the Brecon Beacons National Park and overlooking the majestic Black Mountains. We are only a mile and a half from Llangoed Hall , (renouned wedding venue) and 25 miles from the Red Kite Feeding Centre at Rhayader. In 2008, our village was voted number 10 in the Top Ten Desirable Villages in Britain as reported in the Daily Mail and ITV.

Our name, although a play on words, actually comes from the way the river Wye meanders to create the 'knot'. This is commonly known as an Oxbow bend.
