Llangors is a small village in Powys, Wales, set on the eastern shore of Llangorse Lake, the largest natural lake in southern Wales. The lake and surrounding reedbeds are a designated SSSI and attract birdwatchers and anglers; you can also find the remains of an ancient crannog in the water, hinting at prehistoric and medieval activity in the area. The village sits within the Brecon Beacons National Park, so rolling hills and marked walking routes are on the doorstep.

Locally the economy mixes hill farming with a steady flow of visitors drawn by watersports, wildlife and gentle countryside walking, and the village retains a strong community feel with small-scale hospitality and seasonal events. Llangors’s blend of natural interest, historic touches and rural Welsh culture makes it a quiet but well-loved spot for both residents and day-trippers.
