Newtown is the largest town in the county of Powys, Mid Wales being located within 8 miles from the Wales England border, 80 miles directly west of Birmingham and 97 miles north of Cardiff. Newtown has recently benefitted from the completion of the four-mile Newton Bypass in August 2018, which has allowed faster and more direct access into the estate from the wider area and eased the traffic through Newtown.
Newtown Railway Station also offers alternative access to the town, which runs eastwards to Shrewsbury and Birmingham and westwards to Aberystwyth.
