Powys

 

Powys is a county in Wales named after the Kingdom of Powys.

We stayed in a small inn there surrounded by sheep.

English and Welsh breakfast are quite similar.

Lamb for dinner wasn't bad either.

We saved room for dessert.

The hills of Powys are full of sheep pastures.

Powys Castle was built by Welsh prince Gruffydd ap Gwenwynwyn.

Robert Clive of India's son married the owner of the castle, Henrietta Herbert, in 1784, and many of Clive's treasures taken/looted from India reside there. They won't let you take pictures of them either...
