Black Covert woodland is an absurdly pretty place alongside the Afon Ystwyth. Near the site of a Roman fort and the Coed Allt-fedw earthworks, there’s much history seeping out of this landscape. Alongside the river, it feels as though nothing much has changed in generations, with the peaceful woodland and running water.
Beech, ash and sweet chestnut trees provide a lovely canopy and there are picnic benches for you to sit at while you open up the thermal flask.
