Broneirion is a beautiful Victorian house nestling in its own
grounds on a hillside, across the river Severn from the village of
Llandinam, mid-Wales.
In 1992 it became the property of Girlguiding Cymru and in 1997
celebrated 50 years of being used for guiding. With the glorious
surrounding Welsh countryside, it makes an ideal base from which to
visit the mountains and the coast.
