Holy Trinity Church Penrhos

A small stone church sitting quietly in the Powys countryside near Llanymynech, Holy Trinity at Penrhos is the sort of place you stumble upon rather than plan for. The building itself is modest - nothing grand or showy - but that's rather the point. If you're staying at one of the caravan parks dotted around here (Tanat Holiday Park is closest at under three miles away), this makes an easy afternoon walk or a brief stop if you're exploring the wider area.

The church rewards a bit of curiosity. Local history types will find it worth a quiet half-hour inside, though realistically you're looking at a short visit unless you're genuinely into ecclesiastical architecture. The surrounding countryside is the real draw - rolling fields and proper Welsh borderland terrain. Families with young children might find it a bit dull for extended time, but older kids on a walking holiday could take it as part of a longer ramble around the Llanymynech area.

Access and opening hours aren't well documented online, so your best bet is to check locally when you arrive at your holiday park. It's free to visit, naturally. The location works well if you're basing yourself at Valley View Holiday Park or Grantley Court - both within easy driving distance - and you fancy mixing countryside walks with a bit of local heritage. Nothing earth-shattering, but exactly the kind of low-key spot that makes rural mid-Wales appealing.
