When I moved to Wales, this visitor centre provided me with a wealth of information about the BB's There were any tourists there too. Wales needs tourism and we can't afford to lose these facilities.

Like to hear the other side of the story because closing a potential income stream when losing financial support is illogical

Please don't close this place. Great for families. Local and visiting alike. Don't take away the things people come to Brecon for. Do that and they will stop coming!

This information centre has been at the centre of so many parts of the BBNP that to lose it would be catastrophic for visitors and locals alike.

I can't believe this. This is a vital part of the tourist trail which is important to the S. Wales economy.

They should be encouraging visitors not making it more difficult for them to learn about the area.

This would be a disaster for businesses and visitors alike

Has any thought been given to commercial development of the site which would enable retention of the visitor facilities?

Would be sad to see the closure as this is a great place for visitors to the area. Everything they need in one place we send people there because of the beautiful area and information that can be gained

Closing the shop with its information etc. is not the way to encourage tourism in the area.

This decision is shortsighted and disastrous! It will heavily impact not only the centre but the surrounding areas too.

Lots of visitors from Spain and other countries frequently stay with us and like to have information on the places they visit,this is very disappointing to learn of the closure.

The TIC centre in Brecon is also due to close when it will be co-located with Brecon Museum and Brecon Library (ir it ever happens .......) Needless to say it will be downsized from its current prominent position in Cattle Market car park and less obvious to visitors. The TIC has been closed in Builth - is there no end to the cuts???

This places is the heart of the Brecon Beacons. The information given to tens of thousands of people in pursuit of the wonderful natural beauty of the Beacons is invaluable. Its a centre to start from, a base to return to, a place to meet others, the attraction to come here is immense. It would be an insane thing to close it. A huge blow in attracting visitors to the Beacons. DO NOT DO IT.
