Getting about

Getting around Powys

Distances are long and most people drive, with Blue Badge spaces in the market towns. Newtown, Welshpool and Machynlleth sit on the railway west to the coast, another scenic line crosses mid Wales, and country buses fill in the gaps. Meeting in your nearest town keeps a first date manageable.

Eligible disabled people can get free bus travel with a Welsh concessionary card, useful on the country routes between Newtown, Welshpool, Llandrindod Wells and Brecon.

Powys: your questions

What makes a peaceful accessible date in Powys?

The canal towpath near Brecon, Powis Castle's gardens and the Lake Vyrnwy visitor centre are all accessible and peaceful.

Is Powys hard to get around?

The distances are the main challenge, so a car helps. The main towns have trains, and Blue Badge parking is not hard to find.

Can I match with people over the border?

Yes. Matches start near you, and you can message members over the border in Shropshire, down in the Valleys or anywhere in the UK.
