A short walk from the parking lot but it is definitely worth a walk to get to the beach. Beautiful sandy beaches, landscape and caves (to look only recommended). You can spend long hours, relaxed. Parking gets busy so early arrivals are recommended. Late afternoon is good in summer but watch out for the closing time. It's part of the National Trust.

Beautiful castle to visit on a sunny day. Very informative and interesting to walk around. There were tours and shows going on around the grounds. Food and drink was cheaper than we expected! The gift shop is worth a visit too and you can find out the origins of your surname.

A lovely couple of hours spent here walking around the beautiful gardens and peeking into history walking around the castle. Had a delicious lunch of sandwiches made by a lovely gent on a small stall too. Saw plenty of birds, bees and butterflies 🦋

Lisa & the team of girls are amazing! They go above & beyond for all the customers. Whether they are of the human or doggy kind lol. They never stop & are always making sure the place is clean & tidy. The food is absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. So much so, we ate there every morning we were in Fishguard. Coffee is proper stuff & made well. Would definitely recommend it to anyone in the area. Will mostly definitely be looking forward to our return so we can come see you again soon. God bless you all & thanks again for being so fab! The Hart's 💙 + 🐕Ellie & 🐩Dotty

Visited to see the Fishguard Tapestry after learning about the local history while we were staying nearby. This is really something worth seeing! The time and effort invested in this wonderful piece is testament to the pride they hold in their history.

Never been before so was pleasantly impressed. I'm not keen on zoos but this is more of a small safari park. All the animals looked well cared for. We could walk amongst the wallabys which was great fun for children. Loved the lemurs as well. There is a cafe but we brought our own lunch so not sure about prices. Plenty for children to do with a hay barn and climbing frames. Managed to glimpse the baby tigers which were born here. A very pleasant day out though entrance charges are quite high. £24.95 adults, £21.95 children.

With going to Oakwood I heard horror stories of the rides, they were wrong. The two thrill rides are immense, there are no queues what so ever, I rode Megafobia 9 times in 4 hours and what a ride. There are some down sides though, expensive tickets and no new rides. But the customer service is far better than any Merlin attention and the safety is perfect with seatbelts and lap bars on rides. I would definitely come back again.

Such a lovely way to spend an afternoon. Having just arrived in Pembroke and driving towards Swansea, I spotted the sign on a roundabout and thought 'why not!' So my mum and I decided to take a detour and had such a wonderful experience ☺️ Beautifully maintained and so well laid out. Around every turn was another gorgeous animal or attraction. There was a great variety of animals and all were clearly well cared for. The gift shop and food options were also a lovely treat and reasonably priced

A lovely beach that welcomes dogs over the winter months. A car park and cafe are close by. There is a RNLI shop by the beach as well. I would expect during the summer it would be tricky to park on a sunny day. It was getting busy by mid morning on a sunny February day when we visited. There are toilets on site too. You will need cash for the parking machine as the pay machine didn't accept card only pay by phone but signal was poor. Only a donation suggestion in the winter months for parking though which is a good idea, making it more accessible for people.

This is a wonderful place to visit. Very atmospheric, you can sit in the chairs where Dylan sat and really feel his presence. The man working there was lovely and told us fascinating facts about Dylan's life. There's also a fabulous cafe at the rear which you can visit even if you don't want to see the rest of the house. But would definitely recommend seeing the whole house.

We had a lovely time here. The play park is fabulous, animals are great, seals are a bonus. Having more staff to deal with lengthy queues would bring in more money for you. The amount of times we attempted to buy more drinks each hour would have led you to have a lot more money from us. There were others we heard being off put by the queues too.

One the most spectacular sheltered beaches on the Welsh coastal path , just incredible.

Absolutely beautiful country park. Only visited to attend a street food festival so cannot comment on camping or other activities. What I can say is that I'd recommend it to anyone who loves camping. It's a huge beautiful country park. Had an amazing day. Will be returning to camp so will be able to comment then. We'll worth a visit 👌

Amazing castle with still much of the ruins to explore and reimagine. The layout is intact so easily interpreted with helpful signs and a good free map. The roof top climbs are well worth the effort - which, with a stone spiral staircase with a stout almost vertical rope, is not for the faint hearted! But there's plenty else to wander and wonder about.

Such a fun day out, incredible that it’s all for free. So much history and interest in the craft. The staff were incredibly lovely and we had a really great time. Shout out to Joan for the great chat about all things yarn. Honestly fantastic that nothing goes to waste here, even the wool used in demonstrations is used for something, so impressive.

What a fabulous place run by fabulous volunteers. Our 3 yo grandson loved the trains and the playgrounds and was very excited to complete the quiz with help and get his prize. Very reasonable food and admission. A lovely afternoon.

A beautiful day spent here. Gorgeous gardens, ideal for a lovely walk and explore the gardens. A lovely tropical house you can spend time enjoying more plants from hotter countries. Thoroughly enjoyed it, plenty of benches to sit and admire everything. So many butterflies and bees to see getting the nectar. If you want a lovely lunch, go the the restaurant here, delicious food and hot and cold drinks. Once you visited you can come back again within seven days with your ticket for free entry.

An amazing experience with SeaMor – a small, family-run company with a big heart. The guide spoke with immense passion and knowledge about the bay and local wildlife, making the trip truly fascinating. They did everything possible to ensure we saw as much as possible – and we were lucky enough to see seals and dolphins! We drove almost two hours to this attraction, and it was absolutely worth it. A lovely gift shop and fair prices. I highly recommend this company and this wonderful attraction in beautiful New Quay!

What an awesome trip, fabulous crew and Michelle was an absolute fountain of knowledge. The views from the boat are stunning, seeing beautiful New Quay from the sea is amazing. Then we were blessed to be greeted by a pod of Dolphins, just phenomenal! 2 calves with the zoomies, and around 6 others all came close to say hello, just magical. So much to see the birds, the seals, the jellyfish.. and then the wonderful landscape where the land meets the sea. I did the hour and a half trip on sun catcher and 100% recommend this and definitely will be back. Thank you so much guys for an awesome experience.

Beautiful woodlands and you're rewarded with the castle ruins at the top. Clear skies on the day we visited so you could see for miles. Visited the National Trust House while there and took a walk around the deer park also. Worth a visit all round!

Great value for money. Lovely castle and the tunnel was an added treat! Absolutely love that health and safety hasn't ruined the experience by putting barriers and fences up at every danger point. It actually felt real. The cost wasn't high and the chap in the ticket booth was very friendly and helpful. A lovely little walk around the castle (that's free) The little cafe and shop is also nice. Although the handwritten signs forbidding you from using the toilet unless you're a customer feels harsh and unfriendly to visitors.

Almost missed this treasure on our trip to Llandovery. Easy to get to on the A482, well signposted and owned by the National Trust - a membership would be a good idea! The site itself is HUGE, loads of walks and views to take in! The main opencast site has several buildings with factual signs dotted everywhere The winding room with the shaft cage is especially interesting! We attended both mine tours, Victorian and Roman. I simply cannot express how incredible our guides were. Not only are they hilarious and informative, but they are also obviously extremely dedicated to the history of the site itself. I highly recommend this as a day out, especially with children - the gold panning was also very fun! Big shout out to our tour guides Nevile and Ed! - side note - if it's your birthday (or in my case the day before) and you do the Victorian tour, Nevile will let you blow out the candle and make the other tourers sing Happy Birthday to you in the dark! Made my day!

I photograph the Kites here. It offers a different photographic background to Gigrin Farm and there is ample opportunity for good pictures. The owner Peter is helpful and insightful.

Beautiful castle and ruins. Lovely feel to the place with stunning views across the sea.... Still walls to see and walk around and worth a visit. Free to go round.

Visited on Thursday, 04th September 2025. Bought a return ticket to Devils Bridge on a rainy day. I was staying in town and took a short trip across town to the Vale of Rheidol Railway Station in Aberystwyth. My train ticket inc access to the new Engine Shed, but my wife, who wasn't going on the train, had to pay £5 for Engine Shed access only, which was fair enough IMO. Car parking is chargeable at the end of your journey, and there was plenty of it at the station. The VoR station is about 300 yards from the mainline station if you're coming by train. The ticket office encompasses a well-stocked shop inc a model train running above your head around the ticket office/shop, and you have to pick up a paper ticket even if you have purchased your ticket online. Don't lose this as the guard wants to see and clip it before the start and return journeys.. There is also a café I didn't go to, but the engine shed is brilliant inc the lovely block flooring, smell as well as the Southern Railway front transported from London. The platforms provide views of the carriage and engine sheds. The whole site is in great condition and has obviously had a lot of money spent on it. The toilets are magnificent. My service was at 12:15, and I witnessed the engine being prepped in advance. It was raining, but this made the engine appear even more magnificent. I, along with a few hardy souls, chose the open carriages behind the loco, which I would recommend on the journey to Devils Bridge and stay in the same for the return journey, so you get both experiences, i.e. front and back of the train. The journey itself was lovely and provided stunning views, and being near the engine, you get to hear the effort on the way to Devils Bridge (we pretty much coast on the journey back down). a little shop/ticket office with refreshments at Devils Bridge as well as toilets, but not much else, but you can walk to the nearby 3 Bridges walks, though I recommend you stick to the short walk if you want to get back on the return journey rather than wait for the one 3 hours later. Reasonable price for a great day out.

This was amazing! What a marvelous day I've had in Aberystwyth today and I've taken some outstanding photos from the cab of the bay! Prices were cheap for a family of three and we all had room to stay and take photos and the trail railway was not to fast but not to slow! 10/10 from me!

The Talyllyn Railway is a narrow guage railway that runs for 7.5 miles passing through beautiful countryside with several stations/halts along the way. The line was originally created to carry slate. It was the first railway in the world to be preserved back in 1951. The trip along the line and back takes about 2 hours including a 30 minute stop at Abergynolwyn where you can take a short stroll to see a waterfall or enjoy a drink and a snack in the tea room. There is also a cafe at Talyllyn. If you alight at Dolgoch station you can walk along to see Dolgoch Falls which is a set of three falls in a beautiful woodland ravine. You can rejoin the train the train later. Just make sure you have a timetable! The train carriages available offer saloons,an open carriage plus first class and an observation coach. The latter two require a supplement to the regular fare. There is a carriage that accommodates wheelchairs,I would recommend contacting the railway before hand as spaces are limited. There are toilets facilities at Talyllyn and Abergynolwyn. There is a good sized car park at Talyllyn, charges are £2 for 4 hours and £4 for 8 hours. I believe there were further charges for a longer stay. As of June 2025 the adult fare is £28 for an adult rover ticket, child fare is £14. There are some lovely photo opportunities along the way, the scenery really is beautiful.

The drive here was amazing but the views at this location are just as breathtaking! What a sight to be seen. The dam itself is a great bit of engineering. Great views of the reservoir and surrounding woodlands too. At the North car park there is a public toilet also. Perfect to park up and soak it all in, get out for a short stroll to the view points and information boards or hike away into the woodlands and mountains.

What a wonderful place! We have been staying about 20 minutes from here on and off for years and never realised it was there. It's the sort of place you could spend a long time in, even though it's not massive. Watching the butterflies, looking at the insects, spiders etc. Fascinating! Staff are lovely and clearly have a passion for their work. They will happily chat to you and share their knowledge. I have lung issues so the heat and humidity in the butterfly house could have been an issue for me, but I just popped out when I felt I was struggling, had a breather, then went back in again. It was definitely worth it. The garden area is beautiful as well, lots of lovely interesting plants and a peaceful place to sit. There's a cafe in the power station info centre...lovely tea and cake. Great views of the reservoir and dam and there are also picnic tables. We will definitely visit again.
