## About The Property

Boughrood Field Centre is situated in the beautiful Wye Valley in Mid-Wales by the Brecon Beacons National Park and near Hay-on-Wye. It is the old Victorian Church School of Boughrood, which closed in the 1960s and has been used as a field centre since then. This simple but comfortable property is suitable for families, groups of friends, activity groups and youth groups and is let on an exclusive use basis, offering great value to large groups.
