Newtown holiday cottages are perfect for visitors who want a relaxed base for exploring Wales. Newtown lies on the banks of the River Severn in the heart of the country. It is the largest town in the county of Powys and a fine example of a Welsh market town built on the textiles industry and Industrial Revolution. Today, it is a laid-back place with a charming centre full of independent shops and many of the region’s best cafés and restaurants. Newtown’s most famous son is the influential social reformer Robert Owen, whose life is explored at an excellent museum. The Oriel Davis Gallery, Newtown Textile Museum and WH Smith Museum are all well worth a visit.
