HI. Apologies for the delay in answering your query. It’s quite a long journey from London to Powis Castle but if I were driving I would come via M1 and M54 to Shrewsbury and then turn off for Mid Wales. Train is easier with links from Shrewsbury to Welshpool (nearest town to Powis Castle). Lots of places in the area for short breaks too.

Don't bother going if you also want to see inside the castle. My friend is in a wheelchair. The transport from car park to entrance is good and there is a disabled toilet but the 13 steps to be climbed to get into the first floor of the castle means it is NOT accessible to those who are wheelchair bound. We were given an iPad to loo at which had some photos of the interior but no accompanying information. My friend spent two hours sat in the café accompanied by one of us. My advice would be to look elsewhere
