Llanthony Priory 12th C was one of the earliest houses of Augustinian canons to be founded in Britain and the church one of the great medieval buildings of Wales. Located high up in the wild and beautiful Ewyas Valley it enjoyed royal patronage and many visitors.
Today it can be enjoyed as a peaceful and scenic place to stroll and explore the ruins even picnic on a warm summers day. It is open and free of charge between 10 and 4 each day. There are oportunities to walk, cycle and pony trek.
Do call in at The Llantony Priory Hotel part of the original building and little changed. Have a drink and something to eat in the atmospheric bar.
