The Bear
Hotel Travellers look forward to
stopping off at the Bear, a hotel famous far and wide for its welcoming
atmosphere, historic character, convivial surroundings and good food. A
cobbled forecourt, archway into the inner courtyard and 19th-century
stagecoach timetable in the bar are all reminders of the Bear's former
role. What a fabulous place to stay.

encourages young people and adults to explore and develop their
creative talents through a wide variety of arts activities.
Arts Alive
staged
their own festival
Dragon Gateway Festival ran at the end of
June/beginning of July and was a celebration of arts in the widest
sense. It included theatre performance, poetry, an evening of rock
bands, illustrated talks and presentations, exhibitions and a
grand festival day with a festival procession and a live open-air
theatre performance with Crickhowell's own giant puppet dragon.
The festival was a big success and they
hope to build this into an annual or biennial event for
Crickhowell.

'The Black Cab Sessions - a terrific online series that features
musicians performing a song in the back of a London taxi -
charted new territory by posting five performances filmed on a
trip out of London to the Green Man festival. Join
