The area around Brecon.

Brecon is a cathedral and market town in the heart of Bannau Brycheiniog, with an economy shaped by farming, a long-standing military presence and a strong outdoor tourism trade. Visitors arrive for walking and the canal, so hospitality and activity businesses depend on being findable by people who have never heard of them. Trades serve a scattered rural catchment and older stone properties. Either way, a clear service radius and bilingual-friendly presentation help a Brecon business look properly rooted in the area.

Talgarth (8 miles), Crickhowell (12 miles) and Builth Wells (14 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. A longer drive takes in Tredegar (14 miles), Rhymney (14 miles), Ebbw Vale (14 miles) and Brynmawr (14 miles). Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.

Inside Brecon, the site can name areas such as Llanfaes, Llanfrynach, Libanus and Llanspyddid.

From our base in Exeter, Brecon is about 85 miles to the north. Its postcodes start LD.
