Map of the UK

Llanrhystyd is a small, scattered rural parish in Ceredigion, Wales, sitting in the valley of the Afon Wyre on the lower flanks of the Cambrian Mountains and within easy reach of Aberystwyth. The settlement clusters around a historic church dedicated to St Rhystyd, with a landscape of hedged fields, stone cottages and winding lanes that feel a long way from urban bustle.

Traditionally centred on sheep farming and smallholdings, the area also bears traces of past lead-mining in nearby hamlets such as Ystumtuen, and today attracts walkers and those seeking quiet country life; community activity tends to revolve around the church and village hall, with a strong sense of local history and rural identity.
