Welcome to Llanerchaeron

The 2010 Urdd National Eisteddfod will be held on the beautiful Llanerchaeron Estate, designed and built in the 1790s by John Nash. This rare example of a self-sufficient 18th-century Welsh minor gentry estate has survived virtually unaltered and will provide a dramatic backdrop to the festival. With a working, organic farm and wonderful grounds, offering peaceful walks and breathtaking views of the Aeron Valley, Eisteddfodwyr can take advantage of the opportunity to visit the spectacular Llanerchaeron Estate.
