Brecons is easier to reach, but Snowdonia is more scenic. You could even join the two if you put in some big days.

Peak district is the easiest to get to from London - train to Derby or Stockport takes less than 2 hours. Loads of good riding, but doesn't feel quite as remote as snowdonia, but lots of nice pubs and villages to ride through.
Edit: You could ride from Cardiff, through the brecons up through the middle of wales (which is beautiful) and then up through Snowdonia, finishing in Bangor and then get train home from there. I've done this in 3 days before.

General enquiry:
I am trying to plan a 4 days touring for Easter break, and wanted to do one of the great parks (except Lake District where I have been already). It should also be easily reachable by train from London. I'm thinking a 300/350km loop over four days, depending on amount of climbing.
Snowdonia? Peak District? Brecon Beacons? Which is the most stunning?
