Brand Values
01. Real
Mid Wales offers an unbranded, unpretentious, authentic destination that can be shared and loved by all. Full to the brim with real, authentic experiences, people, place and culture – Mid Wales is completely unique to its own, and so are we. An extension of our product, we don’t care for formalities or overpromises, we’re all about the real. No filter

02. Empowering
As we make our way in the world, we’re all too often surrounded by artificial. But artificial does not broaden our horizon. We strive to empower our audiences, providing them with positive and enriching alternatives that give them something new. Being explicitly negative towards artificial or our audience’s current status quo isn’t us, so we never knock it, instead we simply empower and equip with a Mid Wales alternative

03. Exciting
We invite visitors to discover with us, as we shine light on a new way of experiencing and exploring an authentic and untouched environment. Tourism in Mid Wales is not the following of a tour guide holding up a numbered placard… To us, that’s not exciting. Our exciting is spontaneous, adventurous, vibrant. To be exciting, we need to be to the point. Always.

04. Unique
Every tourist board says they’re different, but how many actually are? How many can put their money where their mouth is and say you will not get this anywhere else? That’s rhetorical, we don’t know the answer – one thing we can tell you though, you won’t get Mid Wales anywhere else.

05. Quality
Our team’s obsession for Mid Wales is at the forefront of everything. Naturally. We love it so much here that anything we say or do, oozes passion - and it’s contagious. But it’s easy, because although we pride ourselves on being real and distinctive, in truth - our environment does all the work for us. The quality of Mid Wales is undeniable and effortless.
