Booked a table for food and staff we friendly and accommodating. Three Evan's brewery beers on tap, so that was lovely to find. Dragon's breath curry was amazing and deep heat and not rubbish surface spices. Pizzas were a little large and perhaps too overloaded. Very dog friend.

Homely and very welcoming. All staff gave us a great reception. Pet friendly. Accommodation clean and comfortable. Breakfast very good as was our evening meal. Would definitely stay again. View from the front terrace which is we ate our breakfast. 10/10 Thank you

Have just visited the pub two nights in a row for food only, i didn't stay at the hotel so can't comment on that. The pub itself is lovely and has a really nice feel to it inside and out. The views from the front are exceptional and it's a great place to sit and have a relaxing drink. The staff are really friendly and the service is very good and quick. The real let down is the food unfortunately. It's such a shame because everything else is great. I had the pie of the day on my first visit which was bland and pretty cold too, the filling was actually cold. I tried the Dragons Breath Curry on my second visit. I found it watery and didn't enjoy the quality of Lamb used, it didn't really taste of curry, just a very spicy tomato sauce. I finished my meal both times so did't complain, it's obviously not inedible. However it's really expensive and 100% not worth the price. I wish they'd employ a decent chef and reduce the menu and do quality home cooked food. As is say though, the pub is lovely and the staff are friendly and doing their best, just a shame they haven't got better food to serve. I wouldn't eat here again unless i'd heard there had been a big change and improvement.

Wasn’t too keen on the pub, was a bit dark. Can’t explain why but didn’t like the atmosphere but good range of beers and good seating outside. The rooms which are on the other side of the car park were totally much better. Very pleasant reception staff, clean well serviced rooms. Extra comfortable bed, much better than pictures show on booking.com

We only ate at the inn, cannot comment on the hotel. We had 5 meals, all from the specials menu. The water buffalo burger was lovely, the chips ok (a little undercooked). The lamb and mint burger was a bit plain. Pie of the day was delicious and large, as were the lamb chops - 3 very nicely cooked and large chops with good veg and lovely gravy. We were slightly disappointed that there was no Sunday roast but enjoyed the meal despite this

Visited while staying locally for dinner Advised to book but there were lots of free tables Pub very rustic, hygiene appeared poor - sticky tables and floor Food very expensive (£20 burger & chips) Quality of food poor - burger very average, nothing like the photos on website! Doggy dinner (£5) a takeaway tub of rice and peas with a small amount of chopped meat Very expensive!! Service slow but staff appeared friendly and helpful Won’t be returning and don’t recommend

Lovely country pub with surprising varied menu. We had the Welsh faggots, Buffalo burger and Apple pie - all tasty and good portions. The live band playing outside the pub was a great bonus! Staff were friendly and got the feeling this was a mix of locals and not just tourists which was nice.

We visited for a wedding here in September 2025 and it was amazing! It was a rainy day but the rained stopped for the ceremony. There are lots of stairs and there are not many seats at the downstairs bar but where the food is eaten, there are plenty of tables and chairs. The staff were friendly and helpful. The tunnels were very interesting and the venue itself has amazing potential. Everything seems to be within walking distance from the Wetherspoons, which was a very popular and excellent meeting place before and after.

Recently got married here. It is so obvious that it is the most beautiful wedding location. But I would also like to praise how amazing the staff were to our every need, ensuring that the wedding ran smoothly. The owner is also wonderful and responded to every question I had over 2 years of communicating via email. The food was amazing and all of my guests complimented it. Couldn't have wished for a better day. The accomdation is also perfect, we had 3 properties for our guests and we were all very sad to leave.

We recently got married here and had a small elopement plus package. It was absolutely outstanding. The views were amazing as you can see. The house is so beautifully designed and the perfect standard to have a wedding party stay in. We stayed in Runnymeade house and I honestly cannot wait to get the family together again for another occasion and stay in one of these properties. The wedding was perfect Jacs And the rest of the team was so great on the day really helpful and kind. The booking was easy smooth Jamie was so accommodating and we are so happy we chose to have our wedding here. I would definitely recommend and happy recommending to everyone.

The Tunnels. Wow. What a venue! I can’t say that we have been to any other wedding venue with your own private beach! The location alone is enough to make you interested in The Tunnels but when you get to look around the venue it’s all beautiful. The ceremony space outdoors is great, amazing views to the side and backed with cliffs made it a great space for photography. We love the multiple levels at this venue. It really allows you to enjoy the views. The reception room for meals and the evening entertainment has huge panoramic windows which, when you have a location like this, is exactly what you want. The sunset on the evening we were there was gorgeous. Being able to watch it from such a great view while chatting around a fire pit has to be one of the top ways to end your wedding day right?! We are both huge fans of Devon and love being by the coast. If this sounds like you then you should definitely look at The Tunnels for your venue. The location, venue and staff are all amazing. You won’t be disappointed.

Second time visiting here. Came here in early July. There's a small entrance fee of £3.75 but it's pretty quiet when we went and it's quite unusual with the tidal pool so we didn't mind paying the fee. Luckily the ladies beach was open (normally weddings are there) and it looked beautiful with the plants and aqua blue waters. The tidal pool is fun to walk around if you have good balance. The water was cold but a few people tried to swim in it. Relaxing cove with interesting aspects about it. Cafe, toilets, deck chair hire and museum included which makes the visit more comfortable. Highly recommended

Amazing place, great facilities, toilets and a small coffee shop, wedding venue so part of the beach might be closed to public, but it doesn't affect anyone. Reasonable entry fee, shops nearby if you need supplies. We parked in the national park free parking, approx 10 min away, but there's lots on street free parking available.

Great bit of history in beautiful surroundings. Very well kept, tidy. Toilets and changing facilities near the ladies beach. No showers.Gentleman's beach is not always open due to weddings. There is a cafe with some hot and cold food and bits and bobs. Clean beach and water with nice tidal pools.

The sheer size of this statue gets you. You don't necessarily expect something on this epic scale in a place like Ilfracombe. I used to be a regular visitor 1980s/1990s but hadn't been for about 20 years. Had no idea about the statue until I got here. Great surprise. Despite the size of it, the statue fits perfectly at the mouth of Ilfracombe's harbour, which already enjoys a dramatic setting. Like someone else mentioned, the statue and the seeing reminds you of Colossus of Rhodes. Why truth and justice? Why the skin layers? I don't know. Maybe I'll look it up later, but my initial reaction is, wow - look at the size of that thing! Cool! Infective is one of my favourite places. This statue has improved it.

Amazing sculpture towering over the Quay at Ilfracombe. This bronze statue is apparently on loan. It's a striking piece of artwork by Damien Hirst. The pregnant lady with a sword held high above her head looks out across the Bristol channel. It stands over 20 metres high. There is an information board explaining about the statue and how it represents 'Life'. Has to be seen up close to be really appreciated.

Verity is a striking bronze sculpture by artist Damien Hirst, located at the edge of Ilfracombe Harbour in North Devon. Standing 20 metres tall, the statue depicts a pregnant woman holding a sword in one hand and scales behind her back, symbolising justice and truth. One side of the statue shows the woman's outer form, while the other side is anatomically exposed, revealing muscles, organs, and the unborn baby inside her womb. Installed in 2012, Verity has become a major landmark in Ilfracombe, attracting visitors from around the country. The statue stands on a base of legal books, further reinforcing its symbolic message of justice and strength. The detail in the sculpture is impressive, and its scale makes it visible from many points around the harbour. Public opinion has been mixed—some admire its bold design and powerful message, while others find it controversial or challenging to look at. Regardless of opinion, it has undeniably put Ilfracombe on the cultural map. Visiting Verity in person allows you to appreciate the craftsmanship and the impact of the piece. It’s a thought-provoking work of art that adds a unique and modern element to the traditional coastal scenery of the town.

We were surprised to discover this impressive, large, 20 meter high statue of a woman at the mouth of Ilfracombe Harbour. It is a bronze sculpture created by Damien Hirst. On one side it depicts the outer form with her holding a sword and scales - justice and truth. The other side is a bit more gruesome showing her internal organs and a baby developing in her womb. Not the sort of thing you'll find gracing most harbour entrances.

Absolutely stunning artwork and interpretation of justice and strength, the statue is so unique and as you approach from afar its immense size is incredible and leaves you in awe, the information boards below the statue are a great addition and give so much information.

Takes your Breath away its truly magical sight

Absolutely stunning piece of artwork by Damien Hirst. Parking (payable) available right next to her, but do walk around the harbour and admire her from afar too.

•Soft play: great soft play! Our 1.5 year old loves it. I just really wish the staff would enforce the under 3 area being for under 3’s only. Older kids muck around in there, particularly in the ball pit, making it unsafe for our 1.5 year old to use. This has been the case on a couple of visits. A real shame. •Toddler pool: a really great pool and area. The toys provided are so great, thank you. It’s just way too cold. We dress our toddler in her wetsuit but she still shivers. Please consider increasing the temperature. Thank you!

Overall the place it’s nice. We came for a sport event with a lot of people. Over 10 different countries. and the bathroom were generally clean but there were a LOT of people. The gym caterers to young the generation; however, they have pool 🏊 strength and mobility type classes for older generations as well. The staff is very nice too. My daughter had a great experience and made some new friends from UK 🇬🇧

Superb! We are here on a lil break away and my 15 year old son still loves to swim. The wave pool was brilliant, as was the lazy river. We didn’t go on the slides but these looked ace! The lifeguards were absolutely brilliant, so professional and really responsive to everything going on around them. Felt really safe and if I had a small child or group of children with me I’d have been so reassured by them. Great team of young people. Food and drink in the cafe was good and reasonably priced. We’ll definitely be coming back! Thank you ☺️

Good facilities but the water is too cold. My 4 year old would not go in the larger pool due to the temperature so it was a bit of a waste of money for us. Fine for adults but a bit cold for younger kids lots of others were saying the same. Unfortunately we will travel to Cardiff international pool next time as this is the second time it’s happened at LC2. Very helpful staff at the soft play and cafe.

Spend £27 to take my 5 year old swimming in a freezing cold pool. Her lips were blue and her poor jaw was chattering. The jacuzzi (that was barely warm) was filled with people trying to keep warm. The changing room temp was also freezing. Awful experience. Staff was lovely and give us entry to the play area, but it’s such a shame.

We tend to use this as an afternoon activity on our way home from Pembrokeshire. The waterpark is a great place to spend a couple of hours swimming, bobbing around and sliding. The master blaster always has the longest queue but we've never waited more than about 15 minutes in line. We love the waves and the lazy river too. It's a firm family favourite for us.

We had a great time here. The wave machine is as good as ever and the slides excellent. Had a hard time getting our 6yr old grandson to leave. He'd have stayed in all day!

One of the best museums to visit. They have very good preservation of many artifacts. Words are not enough to describe the historical heritage this museum holds. It's a must visit museum. Thanks a lot National Waterfront Museum 🙏🙏🙏🙏

A wonderful museum. It's free to enter and packed with many great exhibits. Make sure you come by here if you're in Swansea! The interior of the museum was beautiful and spacious, it wasn't busy at all which is great if you like less hustle and bustle like myself.

An eye-opener to the vast industrial history of Wales. Visited near to almost closing hours but the crew was so understanding and welcoming. Beautiful exhibits. Also the space around the museum is treat to the eyes, especially during sunsets(and sunrises if you're an early riser.)

Nice experience, Interesting museum. We went on a rainy day. Parking close by.

Fantastic place, free entry. Plenty of exhibits & a lot to learn. My sons & grandson really enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend

A great Museum covering many aspects of the People, Industry, technology, and Landscape of Swansea and the surrounding area.

Very small but worth visiting. Book your ticket in advance to save money.

We visited the park on a Saturday during the summer holidays and had a brilliant experience. The dinosaurs are really realistic with loads of facts about them and were really enjoyed by the children. The animal enclosures are really good, with lots of space and enrichment. We watched the Sealion Show with Pam and were really impressed with the knowledge and training of Crusoe, he loves it! Thoroughly enjoyed just walking around the park, there's lots of space, food and places to relax and just enjoy the sunshine. Also, not forgetting the Tomb of the Pharaohs, what an amazing surprise - LOVED IT!!

Honestly, I am glad I had the ability to get concession tickets because at full price, I'm not sure this place would be worth it. There are some notices about damage caused in December, but this late on in the year, I feel it's not a great excuse. I'm not sold on the natural looking enclosures. Good variety of animals and information. The price of the cafe is extreme and despite the prices, the handle for the door is broke. I was in the cafe for over 10 minutes and I did not see the "self cleaning tables" clean themselves once. :')

This an eclectic park (there's a concessionary price for over 60s) it combines rides and attractions you might otherwise find in an amusement park with real wildlife ranging from timber wolves to gibbons and animatronic dinosaurs and even performing seals. Certainly its a way to keep kids amused and entertained for a good few hours and there are canteen facilities as well.

Nice little rural wildlife Park, that has its charm for its "ruralness". Fits into the valley, so no plain park with no ups and downs. Expect lots of steep climbs, even from the parking lot to the entrance. Tickets bought online are cheaper and you get extras like another free visit and a 50% off for the next season.

Having a young son who loves dinosaurs we have been round most dinosaur attractions in the uk and this one is fantastic visited recently the zoo is a nice touch with a decent variety of animals as well as a soft play staff are friendly and the animals appear to be well looked after I’m perplexed by some of the negative reviews for this place they appear to be people who don’t understand what replicating a natural habitat means or people who are not disabled complaining about walking up hills 🤨get some exercise the wolves are a highlight not to be missed the other critics seem to be about being able to enter the park without paying (wristbands)🧐

My son absolutely loves dinosaurs and animals and this park does not disappoint. The animals all have loads of room to roam but due to the organization of the park we got to see everything and they felt much closer than when visiting larger zoos. I do feel I need to mention the steepness of the slopes and steps, this needs a full day to make sure you have time to walk around at a reasonable pace. Pushchairs and wheelchairs beware it is very steep in places. The addition of the new dinosaur statues was perfect, my son was fascinated in hunting for them as we moved between the animals. We saw the sea lion show and this was fantastic, very knowledgeable staff and an informative show. My highest praise goes the the keeper who we met several times, feeding the meerkats and wallabies on 04/05/2025, he was so engaging during the talks but also made conversation with us throughout the day sharing knowledge about the animals as well as hints and tips about when to visit each of the zones to see the animals when they are active. This was a great day out and having the ability to return free within the next 7 days makes this a great value for money experience and the whole family would highly recommend!

Young kids will enjoy. The soft play is nice and dinosaurs done well. The animals were mostly hiding on a hot day, but was still enjoyable. We got half price so was good value.

Love this place. Turning into our weekly walking place, with peace and quiet (other than the birds singing), even on a busy sunny Sunday, you will meet others, but the peace isn't broken, or only for a short time. Loads of opportunities for photography, but no hides (the only thing missing). Very busy place for Nuthatch, blue tit, chaffinches & loads of other birds, and the squirrel loves the nuts too.

What a lovely place to spend an afteernoon. A few different walks to choose from. We chose the oriental garden and the river walk. Surface is a little uneven in some places and some slopes but all very manageble. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Will definitely go again.

Had a nice dog walk here with the family. Plenty of parking spaces and can pay by phone or card and reasonably priced at £3.50 half day or £5 full day. There are several walks you can do, sadly once your walking they don’t seem to be that well sign posted. Didn’t matter to us as we were in no rush, but could do with a few pointers to help keep you on track. The woodland walk was quiet muddy and the track uneven but the wetland walk was nearly all boarded which was good for us. Had some nice views of the river and finally ended up back at the cafe for a lovely salted caramel ice cream. Nice way to spend an afternoon, there’s also a garden centre to pop in and look at if interested.

Great park. Easy to access. And lots of interesting walks. Plenty for everyone to do. Solo walkers, families, dog walkers, young and old, it’s great. However. Parking is expensive and payment methods poor. At the time of writing this, it’s £3.50 to park (that’s all day, you can’t choose how many hours) there was also only one ticket machine in operation. This led to a huge queue of people waiting to pay. I waited ten minutes approx. It is highlighted that the parking money goes towards the up-keep of the park. But if you’re only going for a thirty minute walk for some fresh air, this is steep. I will go back, but maybe open up a few more ticket machines

This place is beautiful I can't praise it up enough lovely countryside walks flowers everywhere beautiful scenery wherever you look plenty of parking I paid £3.50 for three hours or £5.00 all day really good price it's got a large pond with ducks and all sorts of wildlife a visitor centre and shop also a children's play park and BBQ areas

Fabulous place. Brilliant play area for the kids. Lots of lovely walks, warm and friendly cafe for refuelling!

Nice country park for a short stroll. Variety of landscapes - pleasant riverside walk, woodland, wild flower meadows, a landscaped Oriental gerden and temperate rainforest zone. A decent kids' 0lay area and very popular big slide.

Dunster Castle is magical and so incredibly beautiful. We visited it on a beautiful summer day, the kids loved the outdoor games and the bat trail activity. The castle inside is very well cared for and the gardens are a dream to explore. Highly recommend. Tickets can only be bought on site :)

Fantastic building in an amazing location. Extremely rare leather and silver leaf paintings are breathtaking. Extensive gardens; steep in parts with a great kids play area. The mill was an added bonus. Well maintained, producing and selling their own flour with a super cafe nearby.

Historically amazing place, the castle was very interesting and well looked after. We enjoyed learning about it's history. The shops however were lacking gluten free options and we had to leave early to get food elsewhere.

The village surrounding the castle is beautiful, and lovely to walk through on the way to the castle including the secret garden ran by the castle gardener. Just be aware there are some rather steep slopes to walk up. There are a few cafes that do cream tea outside the castle and also museums and shops. Once actually in the castle grounds there are also lots of slopes to walk up and down to access different areas. There is lots of information about the castle and how it came to be what it is today and also some original features. The views from the castle are wonderful and can see for miles. There is parking for the castle and also other parking nearby if needed. There is a watermill that is still operating which they use to make flour, you can also buy this in the shop as well as other local produce.

What a great place. Very well kept. Fantastic gardens all around the castle and down to the Watermill. The gardens down to the mill are fantastic for children. If you are going to see Dunster properly, it will take a good 4 hours. Great Cafe at the Mill as well, which is all in working order.

A really beautiful castle with stunning views from the top of the hill. The water mill is a must visit too and it’s a lovely stroll through the village to get there!

Look out for the secret passage! We've visited many times,we go to buy the milled oats and flour ground at the mill once or twice a week. Dunster is a lovely little place.

I got married here back in 2016 from start to finish Vicky and staff made everything as smooth as possible polite and friendly and what a beautiful day we all had to celebrate my special day. Would Highly recommend anyone to consider this outstandingly beautiful manor house for any occasion as I'm sure it will exceed any expectation. 5* all around.

Llancaiach Fawr Manor exceeded all expectations! The historical charm and well-preserved architecture create an immersive experience. The knowledgeable staff's passion for history brings each room to life, making the visit educational and enjoyable. The beautiful gardens and scenic surroundings add to the overall enchantment. A must-visit for history enthusiasts and anyone seeking a delightful day out.

This experience was exceptional. The actors who really stayed in character throughout the visit at the Manor were entertaining, professional, and a joy to watch and listen to. The Manor was outstanding with so much beauty and detail. I would highly recommend a visit here and will definitely be returning at some point.

I highly recommend this amazing manor house. The tour guides are fully in character as authentic servants of the house and they never break character. They are charming and entertaining and highly knowledgeable about every aspect of life in this grand manor house.

A big thank you to the actors who stayed in character throughout our entire visit. My grandchildren were enthralled and horrified at the same time. They brought the past to life with engaging stories and wit. A fun day out, highly recommended, we took a picnic and enjoyed it in the grounds. The sun shone down on our very happy afternoon.

What an interesting place! The Manor House staff are in period dress and speaking old English, they are very knowledgeable about the house and the local area. Nice restaurant and the food was really good. Very enjoyable visit.

Went for Sunday lunch and was disappointed by the inflexibility and lack of hospitality. The fact we rang a couple hours in advance to book a table for Sunday lunch and they had "plenty of space" should have been a big clue. Firstly, you must have all three courses - you cannot opt for anything other than the three. OK, fine, if needs must, but then if you're enforcing this you need to have plenty of options. There were just 2 options for starters - soup or sausages. Secondly, I disliked the only soup they offered so went for the sausages. I thought eating sausages for a starter was bizarre so asked for them alongside my main (treating them as a substitute for 'pigs in blankets' felt less bizarre). But alas this was too much trouble for them to achieve, that was a no from them. My mum then asked for all roasted potatoes as she doesn't eat new potatoes, but apparently this too was too much trouble for them to attempt. Another no. Thirdly, both my parents drink were wrong. And on being asked 'What lagers do you have?' the waitress couldn't say - guessing a couple which included an ale and a cider - not lagers. I went for the only lager she could correctly recall. Finally, the service was slow. At least 20 minutes went by between us finishing our mains and them clearing the table and taking our (mandatory) dessert order. It also took around 10 minutes standing at the counter to pay due to 4 people in the queue in front of us also paying but mostly as a result of their strange bill-paying system. I expected better and was very disappointed with their inflexibility and hospitality and shan't be returning any time soon. On a plus note the dinner was well done - good quality meat, yummy cauliflower cheese and a rich gravy. A shame the hospitality couldn't match the food.

A fantastic place to spend all day. You can just walk around, do some rope activities or just be stunned at the beauty. For both indoorsy and outdoorsy people. There are 2 stunning art galleries and suitable for children too. I absolutely loved it and it is free. No tickets and no need to buy a map. The signs are everywhere and you can not be lost. There are some pubs locally but they were so full for lunches we had to wait for an hour! Not worth the price so bring your lunch and drinks unless you want to definitely try fish and chips in-house or go to the restaurant located at the start of your journey but that has a very poor review. Overall an amazing day out. On a windy day wear layers & definitely warm yourself up by walking around.

Really nice afternoon out. It's free so I won't be too harsh but it would benefit from some more information dotted about. Lots of stuff was shut which is understandable in the middle of the week etc but wish it was clearer before walking around. Most of the buildings were shut or empty. But the ones with the volunteers were great. Loved the fire going in the farmhouse it makes it feel real. Should be more info on the process of how i the buildings were moved as that's fascinating in itself!

This museum is very much like a cultural theme park, reconstructing historical buildings from around Wales within a beautiful landscape. The staff are not only extraordinary friendly and welcoming, but seem genuinely kind and patient. Many families come with young children and the site provides good entertainment for kids. On top of that, it is free to enter. This is definitely one of the greatest places in Cardiff.

We had a lovely day here. Definitely worth a visit. We were a group of 12 with 2 dogs, and our ages ranged from 12 to 81 and they all enjoyed the walks from house to house. It was also lovely to listen to the members of staff with all their knowledge. I knocked a star off the experience due to not being able to take the dogs in for cooked food in the main restaurant. A member of staff told us that we could eat in the cafe the other end of the estate. Once we got there, it was only pre packed sandwiches and cakes. We wanted cooked food. Other than that, it was a very enjoyable day

Parking here is £7 for the whole day or free for blue badge holders. I've been here a few times but think it's amazing how old buildings have been taken down n rebuilt exactly as the stood before the vulcan pub is finished and sells alcohol bur it looks amazing and the shops are a blast from the past the place is massive but so peaceful also seeing how our ancestors lived compared to today is mind blowing would recommend visiting if never been before .

Wonderful Museum! each building is interesting and immerses you into the past. it’s free and perfect for a day out for all ages. Bring a pack lunch! the only expense was £7 for all day parking and some gift shop goodies.

We had a great experience at the Museum. Lovely main building with ample parking and facilities. It has a big food court too. The main attraction was the Welsh houses in the complex. They depict the ancient Welsh life effectively. Must have taken a lot of effort to relocate and rebuild these iconic buildings.

First time we've have visited the Principality Stadium and it was very impressive. The overall design for spectators is excellent. Having a capacity of 75000 you still fell close to the action. Also first time to an International rugby game and although Wales lost we had a really good day.

Great ticketing policy with changing QR codes. Easy access to the ground. The toilets were in good condition, but down a lot of stairs. Phenomenal light shows and a great rugby match.

We attended the stadium for the Oasis concert and it was AMAZING! The stadium is huge and there was a wide selection of drinks on offer and reasonably prices. The system thag implemented made it quick service and the staff were friendly. What an incredible experience, keep an eye out of events here because it was well worth attending.

Saw a fantastic game, Wales Vs Japan. A real back and forth match, with some great play. The seating in the middle section gives excellent views of the pitch. The beer is £7.50 a pint. Getting in and out was fast and easy.

Watched a very hard fought rugby match which had us on the edge of our seats. The roof was closed so made the atmosphere even nicer on a cold winters day. The seats were spacious and facilities clean. Found it was one of the easier stadiums to get in and out off. In fhe heart if Csrdiff so easy to walk to and from restarants, pubs and clubs

Awesome stadium. Events are organised very well. The facilities are plentiful. Toilets are clean. Crowd management is also of a very good system,

Best stadium in the world caters for everybody from alcohol-free zones for families to adult areas. The roof enclosure really does cater for The best possible playing conditions and also amazing facilities for concerts. The recent Wales versus New Zealand rugby match was absolutely excellent with amazing, half-time entertainment. I cannot wait to take my family again.

Definitely worth the trip to the castle. The views from the top are amazing. Quite steep steps to go up to the top though. I would also recommend doing the tour for the extra money. The tour takes you to some extra places that you are not allowed to go on with a standard admission ticket. You will need to look at the times when the tours take place before you go.

Cardiff Castle is an absolute must-see if you’re visiting the city. Right in the centre, it blends Roman foundations, medieval walls, and lavish Victorian Gothic interiors in one incredible site. You can wander through the impressive castle apartments, climb the Norman keep for sweeping city views, and explore the old wartime tunnels hidden beneath the walls. Everything is beautifully preserved and full of detail — ornate ceilings, stained glass, intricate woodwork, and fascinating exhibits. The audio guide and staff give great insight into the castle’s long history, from Roman times to World War II. The castle grounds are peaceful and surprisingly spacious given it’s right in the heart of Cardiff, perfect for a stroll or a quiet break from the city bustle. There’s also a lovely café and shop on-site. Whether you’re into history, architecture, or just looking for something iconic to see in Cardiff, this place is well worth the visit!

One of the better castles I've visited. Plenty to see and explore, interactive audio download available and very reasonably priced. The cafe and gift shop are quite small but the staff are helpful and friendly.

This castle is worth visiting. Many things to see and do. The house is lovely and there’s an informative museum too. Children love to roam at the ground. No parking available on the site. You need to find one on the other place.

Lovely castle at the heart of Cardiff city centre. One of the most well-preserved castles we visited. We visited on a weekday so it was not too crowded. The highlight was walking through the WW2 air raid shelter. The posters, the darkness and the sound effects from the speakers really enhanced our experience and we felt as if we travelled back in time. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our visit and we highly recommend it as a must see when you visit Cardiff.

Lovely well-maintained castle, friendly staff, and spacious lawns which make for a beautiful sight. It’a not very big but it’s lovely to see and the Firing Line museum below is informative and interesting. Worth a visit!

A really brilliant experience here. Make sure you download the audio guide and bring your earphones. One thing I would have preferred is that their locations and different numbers so you would know what to listen to add particular spots. But it's great to see so many languages catered for and despite it being busy, it was a really peaceful and enjoyable atmosphere. Definitely a highlight on my trip to Cardiff.

Cardiff Bay is an absolute gem! With its scenic waterfront, bustling cafes, and the stunning Wales Millennium Centre, it’s th perfect place for a relaxed day out

Nice restaurants & great views. Parking not always easy. Play areas for children.

Plenty of places to eat and a few gift shops to browse in too. Great to walk around the barrage to Penarth Head, and view the bay from another perspective.

Nice place to visit if near Cardiff, Wales. Things to do and see. Plenty of food places to explore and try out. There was boats ride available around the bay. (Need to check times and dates, for when available). There a few hotels nearby and parking available.

It’s a nice place to visit in Cardiff. Amazing view. A lot of restaurants and shops around. Mermaid car park at walking distance. Would recommend to take a walk if you happen to come Cardiff.

Really has come on and improved. The bay is now fully open and vibrant. The ghost development of past has come of age. Really pleasant on a hot sunny day. Enjoy a reasonably price boat trip out if the weather is fine

A cornucopia of arts, sports, business, maritime and political history with delightful retail outlets and eateries/bars/pubs/ restaurants to suit every taste!

It's hard to find anything that's free these days, and it's really hard to find something free that is this good! It was suggested to us by a local when we found ourselves in the area on a wet day. It's a genuinely well thought-out, structured and filled museum with a great balance of information, story, activity and exhibits. Excellent place to spend a few hours, and please be sure to donate a few quid each as you leave.

A good museum in the castle. Plenty of exhibits. Well designed galleries and a friendly face on arrival. Nice cafe with tables in & out. One of the best attractions in Taunton, and: it's free! ( Donations welcomed )

We went in with low expectations of this museum after we'd be told by someone it was just a hotel. The layout of the museum is very well thought about and we'll put together. With an almost minimalist style throughout style wise it gives you a chance to fully embrace the stocked displays. The staff were really friendly, there was no push for sales or donations (obviously we did a donation anyway). There was a kids walkthrough which kept them full emersed throughout which cost £1. It took about an hour and 20 minutes I think to get around, looking at everything but stopping to read about the things that we found particularly interesting. I'm sure you could spend more time if you truly wanted to but this was good for us. I would say if you are visiting Taunton for the day, it's definitely worth a walk around. Particular highlights for me were the revolution section as I was completely unaware of this and the heart box and the very large shoes.

A wonderful museum with its own history. Nice staff. Entrance is free, but you can donate from £5. You can also drink coffee and have a snack on the museum grounds.

We went into the museum simply to get out of the rain and ended up staying about three hours. The displays were extremely interesting and very professional and informative in presentation. Entrance price was by donation. I would highly recommend this hidden gem if you are in the Taunton area.

Very interesting and informative of the Somerset area with lots of interesting fossils and artifacts. Well worth a visit and they do not charge for entry although do suggest donation which we were more than happy to pay.

Found myself in Taunton with a few hours to spare, so thought I would visit. Really glad I did. A fantastic museum rich in content, and full of surprises. Staff were friendly and helpful and the cafe offered good food at reasonable prices. Even if you have lived in Somerset all your life you will discover something new.

A gêm of a museum and despite it's size has a fascinating collection of Roman artifacts. Has very interesting, Roman garden and dress up for children. Have been here twice and will definitely return. Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly also

Loved my visit to this Museum, it doesn't look much from the outside, but it's actually awesome and there's so much to see and do inside. As well as the awesome collection of artefacts, the actual story boards and timelines of the Roman occupation are really captivating, it's not often I read every sign, but in here I did. They have lots of cool props you can get photos with & the Roman gardens out the back are very cool 😎 It is free to enter, but you can make donations if you wish. You can combine a visit here with a trip to the Roman baths, barracks and Amphitheatre, they're all close together.

Excellent free museum telling the story of Romans in and around Caerleon. Helpful staff giving information about the nearby sites - Roman Baths (CADW), the fort wall, barracks and wonderful amphitheatre ❤️

Free museum with lots of info and amazing real life artifacts. I loved the various Roman soldier suits of armour and dress. We add weapons, coins, gems, etc. Lots of stuff to entertain the kids too. It’s a must see.

A great little museum. Loads of interesting exhibits with friendly helpful staff. Well worth a visit.

We took advantage of nearby free on street parking for our campervan. If none available there is a coach park with additional large spaces in town. There are dropped kerbs and dimpled paving at road crossing points. There was a pedestrian crossing available. There are 3 steps up to the museum but there is a ramp to the side. Inside there is good access all around. The reception desk is immediately opposite but just step to the right and beyond the donations box the museum reveals itself. There are many interesting and unique displays of Roman artifacts. Roman legionnaries stand imposingly inside and schoolchildren may be able to meet a Roman Legionary actor (by arrangement). Of particular interest was some of the bronze pans and glassware. Many of the pieces were both delicate and intricate. There is a small shop aimed at childrens purchases. There is also a fine looking Roman garden.

The tour guides were amazing. Really informative and knowledgeable. It was interesting to see all the Roman articles. You must see the Roman coffin with the remains of a Roman soldier skeleton still inside. It's a really fantastic museum , just the right size with beautiful pieces of historical armour, jewellery, pottery, and mosaic work to enjoy. You can include a visit to the Roman Baths and amphitheatre, which is nearby. Great day out, hugely enjoyable.

This place is really cool if you're a history nerd 🤓 It isn't massive so you can go round it all I'm about an hour if you're reading everything, theres cool props etc you can take photos with. You get a cool comic style booklet with your ticket, it's a nice keep sake.

One of 3 fascinating Roman museums/archaeological sites in Caerleon. The museum is very atmospheric and incredibly informative with the ability to touch and handle some recreations of typical Roman tools/devices used at the baths. A must visit if you are into history

Participated in a free tour during the 'open Wales' event running throughout September, the tour guide that gave insights to the Roman establishment across the area was very knowledgeable and spoke with such enthusiasm that he provided a great sense of what life would have been like in the area throughout the period of Roman occupation and the significance. Beautiful area and a thoroughly enjoyable day out, would highly recommend a visit. There is a small fee to enter the bath house however most of the site can be visited for free.

The Caerleon Roman Baths was one of the weaker CADW sites we have visited. It was interesting enough, but the information on the baths was weak and not presented well. They have a video playing over the bath to show water effects and people swimming (see my videos posted with the review). Looks okay, but could have been so much better with better effects, scaled more human like people, they were about 9 feet tall and had odd body shapes, etc. The wall board says men and women never bathed together and then you turn around and the image of 2 people swimming in the bath is a man and woman. Again, the info wasn’t presented well. Also the staff weren’t great. They were friendly enough but didn’t seem to know much about it and didn’t seem to want to actually talk to anyone. There was an interesting cavern under the pools that was the old drain from the pools. There is water in it today, probably ground water seeping through. The main water for the baths came from 5 miles away, amazing the work they put into the baths. The other thing that is super neat but not explained well is the heating for the hot room. It had a raised floor and they somehow used the hot air and smoke from a fire to funnel through under the floor and heat the room. Pretty amazing those Romans!

The sites are impressively well preserved and clean. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Fascinating to learn how sophisticated the roman legions were in their engineering abilities. Thought the pawprint and sandal imprint were special and added a sense of human connection to the past. The projected visuals were a creative touch, though the modern swimsuit imagery slightly detracted from historical atmosphere. Overall, a brilliant experience!

An excellent experience made even more special by the friendly staff. This attraction is well laid out and quite reasonable for admission. There are lots of kids activities and history to be experienced. If you are in this town take the time to visit. The staff will also direct you to the other Roman ruins and history in the city as well.

Pay to go in. Nice little walk around the old bath house, you can see a small portion of what was a huge site. Little clip boards given to the kids to entertain them. Interesting to visit. Doesn't take long to get around. Probably plan for 30 mins in there. No toilet inside. Pub right next door though.

We were in a Friday, no waiting queue to go in, definitely buy tickets online its cheaper. It's a good fun for few hours, but not enough rides to keep you busy for entire day. In two hours you can finnish all the rides. Good variety of food and drinks and surprisingly clean all around. I will comeback here.

It claims to be biggest free entry theme park in the UK and they are not wrong. Reasonable ticket prices, and many varieties of fun rides for kids of all ages and adults. You can buy 1 day, 3 days or annual pass or top up the credits and use them to take selective rides you like. Buy online in advance to make big savings. If you are fond of rides, buying a day pass definitely worth it. Toilets are available and plenty of food stalls. Rides are also thrilling and joyful. They are also open for longer times on selective days, check their website for their schedules.

Brean Leisure Theme park I was so pleasantly surprised by this park.Plenty to do for all ages.You can buy tokens or wristbands.We got unlimited bands and had a blast.We found the park to be extremely clean,completely friendly and not overly croweded.Staff are friendly and plenty of food options Rides,arcades,Trampolines and funfair games. Sweet Treats Brean takes the cake...Literally.Sweets,stuffed cookies,choco strawbs,crepes and doughnuts.You would be silly not to stop in and say hello to the Amazing team of ladies that make the sweet shop even Sweeter.My cookies were delicious,mainly the orea and dubai style🤤 Thank you Brean for a lovely day. 10/10 park.i highly recommend others to visit and I'd defo return in future

Great place to take the kids, you can spend a couple of hours or all day here. Lots of rides for all ages. Kids over 1.2m can access all rides and the staff do check the childrens height. Lots of fun to be had. Dogs are allowed on site on leads. There's are water bowls dotted around the park. Wrist bands are cheaper if you buy online.

Always a good time here. Average prices by today's standards. Visited again recently. Unfortunately the opening hours were very limited, shame considering it's June, and a few of the bigger rides were out of order. Still, the wristbands were cheap enough, so made the most of what was available! Good for little ones!

Great amusement park with plenty of rides to choose I thought ice cream and drinks food weren’t over priced at all

I go here at least 2 a year and never have any issues, wend on Saturday for the fireworks it says on there website you can get the wristbands from 2pm got told some story about them closing for 30 mins so go to the other queue which I did not understand a word he was on about then got told after waiting 39 mins no you can only get them after 3pm when it was 2.45pm the staff was so unfull which I never had at Brean before and service so I just say to my kids sod the fireworks and Brean and went the the arcade on the main road where the staff was a lot more friendly and wanted to be there unlike Brean Theme park, I will not be back for some time now

I wish they had a sunny beer terrace on the top floor of the pier—it would make a huge difference. Watching the sunset with a beer in hand is the kind of memorable experience people come back for. Many piers in California offer that, and it really elevates the visit. I also noticed a few loose floorboards that caused someone to stumble, so hopefully those get fixed sooner rather than later.

Lovely spot for a walk — the pier has stunning views, especially around sunset. It’s £2 to get on, which feels fair for how well kept it is. There’s a fun little arcade at the end with a mix of old-school and newer games, great for kids or a quick go yourself. Perfect place to unwind and take in the view.

We had an amazing time at The Grand Pier and Weston-super-Mare! The beach was lively with so much to do rides, food stalls, ice cream, and activities for everyone. The sand was absolutely amazing and so soft, perfect for relaxing or playing with the kids. We stayed to watch the sunset, which was phenomenal! The only downsides were that the water was quite dirty and stayed far out most of the day, only coming closer around 6 in the evening. Overall though, it was such a fun and memorable day out. Definitely worth a visit

The rides were great fun, and the wristband offers good value for unlimited rides. Just be aware that go-karting requires closed-toe shoes—so no sandals! The 2p machines were entertaining but a bit stingy with the prizes. Also, the £2 initial entrance fee to the pier feels a little steep, especially if you're just planning a short visit. It was a great way to spend time together and make some happy memories.

Went to see Richard Hawley and his band who were outstanding. I'm not sure why they were performing here as the venue was too small for an artist of this stature. It is a weird venue because it is situated in the midst of arcade machines. But the sound was good. I wouldn't rush back to a gig there.

The pier last caught fire in 2008. I'd rather walk through the embers and ashes of what was left than the monstrosity they replaced it with. Surely some visionary could've been consulted to do something different? It's all 'kiss me quick' and the old and tired sparkly 'let's throw some money into the slot machine'. Okay, twenty-first century themed slot machines, but it's all the same old, same old. So put on a pair of sunglasses 👓, put two quid through the entrance gate and bore yourself stupid. The Grand Pier is like the featured coffee I bought there. Nothing special.

Day out to Weston Supermare and a wander down the pier. £2 entry through turnstiles. Lovely walk - or there’s a free train- we came back on the train being big kids, or rather we were full from a delicious lunch at Tiffany’s. Great views out to sea - tide was out so it was mostly sand! Played on a few machines in the arcade but didn’t win anything!

Would have been lovely in its heyday but now a bit run down. Lots to see over a 3 hour visit. Soft play area. Play fort and trampolines. Various animals to feed and set times to handle reptiles. Friendly staff. Better to visit on dry sunny days, take a picnic. Racoon looking old and lonely but well looked after. Foxes have large outdoor area. Prices on par with most adventure parks, a bit expensive. All theme park rides out of action and have been for a while. Quite a few empty enclosures.

Needed a bit of an update , particularly on entering. A lot of empty enclosures and broken rides/areas... however as you get further in the animal part (farm) is quite nice. But you are already on a downer as you walk in. The soft play was great and the little cafe part too.

Lovely staff and good variety of animals! Yes it needs updating as its been left to run down a little but taking into account the animals, soft play and cafe, walk through wallaby enclosure, animal meets and trampolines, I think its worth it. With some more money put into it, it has huge potential! Staff are keen to do the work to and get things upgraded so will be back again for sure!

I used to come to this farm regularly as a child and hadn’t been back for over 20 years since moving away. The farm has grown a lot with more animals and activities, but still has the same charm. The staff were all fantastic - friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the animals. The enclosures are spacious and well thought out, and it was inspiring to hear about the rescue work of the charity. A special mention goes to Lucy, one of the keepers we met during our visit. Hearing about her hands-on rescue efforts, including personally helping to bring in the chinchillas was truly heartwarming. This farm is perfect for all ages (even those without children) and a must-visit for animal lovers!

Really aimed at younger children, but who doesn't like stroking bunnies and guinea pigs 😊 Staff are lovely and friendly, plenty of places for your picnic. Sat nav couldn't find it but our phones took us straight there, plenty of free parking. Recommend a visit

Thank you so much to the lovely staff who were on site on the 15th. Your warmth and professionalism made this a memorable and excellent day out. I highly recommend this park to everyone!

We went on a Sunday. I was scared we won't be able to get in as I didn't purchase our tickets online in advance. I was surprised to see the empty car park on arrival. Tickets are way too pricey for the offering. As soon as you enter you will see how bad is the park Condition. Toilets are clean, staff is lovely. They have a small buffet in the soft play. Children had fun but it is not worth the money.

This is my second time at the Tintern Abbey, the Abbey sits on the border between England and Wales but on the Welsh side. I loved it here both times, this time they also had a trail for children to follow and uncover facts. Highly recommend a visit to Tintern Abbey if you are nearby or even passing through to Wales. With rich history, and amazing views, don't miss out.

I’ve driven past Tintern Abbey countless times over the years, always admiring its setting but never quite stopping - maybe because from the outside, it just looked like a quiet ruin with not much going on inside. But I finally made the visit, and I’m so glad I did. The moment I stepped into the church nave, everything shifted. The soaring arches and the magnificent west front with its seven-light window are breathtaking. It’s hard to believe this place was stripped bare after the dissolution in 1536, left to decay for centuries before being rediscovered by artists and poets like Wordsworth and Turner in the 18th century. You can see why they were drawn to it - the ruins are hauntingly beautiful. For just £9, it’s a deeply worthwhile visit. The abbey’s location in the lush Wye Valley adds to the magic, and there’s a convenient pay-and-display car park plus a pub nearby if you want to make a day of it. If you’ve ever passed it thinking “just another ruin,” I’d say don’t wait as long as I did. It’s far more than that.

A very nice side trip. I'm not sure it is worth travelling a long distance for. There are some nice places to see in the small town. Parking is refunded if you enter the abbey. Tickets were £18 for 2 adults.

A beautiful place to visit with some very interesting history and some significant preservation challenges. It was a weekday afternoon with very few people around which made sitting, in what was the original church hall and the surrounding grounds, and incredibly peaceful experience. There was a lot of scaffolding up and areas cordened off as they fight to save the crumbling building but it is still well worth a visit. A local pub make parking and grabbing a drink afterwards easy

What a wonderful abbey. Well worth a visit and a nice short walk through the village and over the bridge. How on earth did they build such structures so long ago! Must be the power of religion 🤔🤔

It is a fantastic place. Very imposing in a peaceful area. I realise renovation works are crucial, but over the building is closed off. Not sure the entrance price reflects that.

Magnificent ruins, quite well interpreted. In a setting that's beautiful even in mid November. The staff are very friendly in the ticket office/shop and also in the tea room. I was glad to congratulate the baker of the cakes in person.

Nice caves but not much geological structures to see. The main attraction of the cave was actually the art trail inside it with a few sculptures to be found and learn more about them. Free parking available on site. Facilities were ok with a cafe and toilets available.

Interesting experience and nice to do on a hot day as the caves are 10c. The sculptures are pleasant but I found the mines and history more engaging. The cafe is nice and had a good selection of drinks and cakes including a few Gluten free cakes.

Brilliant caves and even more special with the sculpture exhibition that’s on this summer. Visited in summer holidays on a wet morning, with two children (ages 8 and 9). We all enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend! It was quite busy, but we hadn’t booked in advance and were allowed in straight away. Free parking, there’s also a cafe on site but we didn’t visit it ourselves.

Always visit the caves whenever we are in the area. Enjoyed the sculpture exhibition - a unique art gallery underground! However, I do feel that this took a lot away from the actual caves/mines and there seemed to be less info about them than I remember previously so I wonder if plaques had been removed or hidden for the exhibition. Still an enjoyable visit.

We enjoy a decent visit to some caves and Clearwell Caves was no exception. The caves themselves are brilliant. A good bit of history to check out at the start of the tour. They also have some exhibitions in the caves which were really good. This was better than I expected

This was the most unique art gallery I have ever been in. I would say it’s a must see, even children 5 and up on my opinion would enjoy it. Most of my explorations were done on my own with no other visitors. It is a little dark with the exhibitions spot lit. If you are claustrophobic you might have a hard time. It took me about 2 hours to explore, you should also wear good shoes here. I enjoyed the museum that talked about ochre and ore mining, and likes that many of the sculptures were metal. I really enjoyed the exhibition and would definitely go again. There is a cafe, and games as well as toilets. There is an outside sitting area with a semi adventure playground. I loved it, but I also loved that here the staff say #sconeAsingone. Nice to meet you Jonathan and Sue!

My third visit here with my family and we were fortunate to be there for the very last day of the modern art exhibition. Such a fascinating place with lots of historical stories and accounts from people who worked these mines. A must visit if you're in this area !

A must do when visiting the Clifton Suspension Bridge is visiting it by foot. There is a great walk from the river going up (you have to cross a busy road, but it is worth it as you see the bridge from different heights and angles. There is a digital tour with lots of information, download recommended!

A nice attraction in Bristol to visit for sure. The Clifton Suspension Bridge offers stunning views and plenty to explore around it. Whether you walk across and capture the beautiful sights of the surrounding villages or visit the nearby observatory, it’s always worth the trip. There are benches where you can sit, relax, and take in the scenery and a great spot to enjoy a coffee, unwind, or even have a picnic.

Really beautiful and stunning brigde. Great views on both side of the bridge. You can walk down on both side and get lovely pictures. There is a third spot from where you can capture the whole bridge and some facts about the bridge is given.

Before sharing my review, I want to acknowledge that the Clifton Suspension Bridge, despite its beauty, has sadly been the site of tragic losses. That’s why it’s so important to remember that help is always available. The Samaritans can be reached 24/7 at 116 123, with compassionate people ready to listen and support you through any situation. Remember, you matter, and the world is brighter with your smile in it. The Clifton Suspension Bridge is truly a sight to behold. Its beauty is breathtaking, especially when viewed from afar with the Avon Gorge beneath it. The bridge is steeped in history, having been designed by the famous engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel and completed in 1864. Walking across the bridge is free, and it gives you an incredible perspective of the surrounding area. Driving over it costs £1.50 for cars, which feels fair considering its importance. Visiting at night is especially beautiful with the lights turned on, creating a magical atmosphere. The bridge is not just a stunning piece of architecture, but also a vital link for transportation in the area and a symbol of Bristol itself.

A beautiful landmark, parking in the area is free on Sundays. We took a lovely stroll through the Beech woodland which then opens out to the Gorge below and then Clifton Bridge…..wow.

An absolutely amazing experience! The nature and scenery were breathtaking, with stunning views that reminded me of the beautiful mountain landscapes from where I come from. The location is truly unique and worth visiting. There’s a small toll for cars, but it’s free if you walk – and walking across gives you a completely different, more enjoyable experience. Highly recommended!

This attraction is definitely worth a visit just for the breathtaking views across the valley. It's free to walk across unless your in a car that is and then you pay at the toll. Walking across did seem busy and you have to move with the traffic if people. There's lots of photo opportunitie here and when your thirsty after your walk across and back you can visit the nearby castle for refreshments.

This is one of my favorite places I’ve ever visited. The hike to the top of the Tor, the views, the labyrinth, the energy fields, the ancient history, all of it is absolutely amazing!

A beautiful and spiritual place. No parking at the Tor except a couple of places reserved for blue badge holders. I advise walking up or taking the shuttle bus until it stops running later in the year. The 360° views around are truly breathtaking.

I’ve driven past this so many times in the lorry, but I’ve never had a chance to take a walk up to it! Absolutely incredible views from up the top and it’s nice to see people doing spiritual things. Glastonbury certainly has a nice chilled feeling to it.

Definitely worth the hard work getting to the top. Views are spectacular. Parking in the old drapper factory car park £4 for 3 hours. The fresh water spring near by to the torr was so clean and pure.

Glastonbury Tor is a truly magical and iconic landmark. The walk to the top is scenic and rewarding, with breathtaking panoramic views of the Somerset countryside. The historic St. Michael’s Tower adds a mystical charm, and the atmosphere is peaceful and spiritual. A must-visit for anyone exploring Glastonbury — beautiful, inspiring, and unforgettable!

Fabulous landmark - I walked here from Wells, with great views of the Tor as it rises prominently above the surrounding countryside. The final push to the top of the hill is well worth the effort. I have spotted the Tor from the train near Castle Cary too, worth looking out for.

The Tor, Glastonbury is beautiful and the views are stunning. It’s a steep walk up but you can take your time and it’s worth it. Very glad we decided to take a morning walk up to The Tor.

Follow the Bristol Zoo sign with an Elephant. When you arrive, there's no Elephant! Overall a great attraction, especially for youngsters. Plenty to see and a lovely walk throughout too. I only dropped a star as at least 5 attractions were empty or undergoing maintainance. This has been the case on previous visits too. The restaurant inside is well spaced, clean and tidy, good service from the staff too. My only reservation was the high prices (as to be expected at the type of attractions). The array of wildlife is good, I particularly recommended trying to coordinate with certain feeding times for a more enhanced visit. After lunch, we tried 4 vending machines for ice-cream, all were out of order. This was a slight disappointment to my daughter (not my pocket!). Overall a good day out. Advisable to book your tickets online to avoid disappointment. I would certainly recommend this attraction. Less than an hour journey from Cardiff.

Great selection of animals..very enjoyable experience. All the animals look happy and relaxed so I'm certain they're treated well. Great time to see the animals in their daily routine. I understand people's reservations on animals on captivity but a lot of the animals here are in danger of extinction so I'm glad to see their breeding program to help restore the population. Overall a wonderful experience

The zoo itself was awesome, the exhibits were diverse and especially the aquarium and reptile house were really well scaped! Saw a lot of animals I haven't seen before and caught some great animal behaviours. Sad to see it closing but looking forward to my first visit to Wild Place later this year! Deducted one star for it taking 30 minutes to park, but that won't be a problem when they move out of the city 💜

A fantastic day out for the family. A wide variety of wildlife from flamingos to lions. All the obvious attractions you’d expect. The restaurant was spacious and the good was good. Plenty of baby changing facilities. Parking was easy and in close proximity to the Zoo. At £4 unlimited the parking was a very reasonable price. I would highly recommended this attraction for a fun day out. My only negative was that pushchair access was not easy st times and wheel chair users may struggle as none of the doors were extra wide or powered. Other than that a brilliant day out. We will be back again soon

Amazing zoo! The exhibits were great and the animals were easy to see. There was a lot of things to do with kids. We spent about 4 hours here with our 3 kids and could have spent more time. We brought our buggy and it was easy to get around everywhere.

Many animals absent or not in viewing areas when visiting, which I guess can’t be helped to a certain degree. No comms regarding enclosure timings / closures info regarding feeding times / talks on a sandwich board at entry only. Took over an hour to find a parking space after finding out when getting to the zoo the car park was full and the entrance barred. The limited on street parking around the zoo all has a 3 hr max stay which isn’t helpful. On trying to ring the zoo to find out if we are still allowed to attend outside of our half hour slot, nobody was answering the phones so wasn’t sure either way. Heading towards the not well advertised overflow car park which was managed by luck it wasn’t apparent if it was full or not but there appeared to be no entrance. That is to say save for an area where 2 individuals in hi-vis sat away from the road, one rolling a joint the other playing on their phone. Eventually finding a spot to park on street that wasn’t limited to a 3hr window, on walking past the zoo car park it became evident there wasn’t any active management of the car parks as despite still being closed there were numerous empty spaces available. The penguins were a highlight though these days there are few and trying to see them at feeding time is awkward due to the crowd. The best for me was the seal feeding and talk as despite the crowd I was able to see due to the animals being clearly much larger than penguins. The fruit bats able to walk around overhead was also an enjoyable experience. Witnessed and area of concern when I was exiting through the gift shop, where an employee was weaving a stack of boxes through the busy crowds above her head height balanced on a wheelchair of all things?! I doubt that was on the risk assessment.

Lovely family day out. You can get really up close with the animals and the staff are all on hand to answer any questions. Feeding the birds is a wonderful experience for all ages and the butterfly house is also a hit. Never had an issue with parking although the car park is pretty small. We always take our own food but there are facilities there in which to purchase but as with all places, expect to pay for this. All in all, a lovely day out.

Our first time here and it did not disappoint! £20 for our tickets was completely worth it, there was so much to do! I took my 2 year old boy and he thoroughly enjoyed it, buggy park is at the beginning for any families, so take bags with you for the kids so it saves you heading back there to collect them (I left everything on the pram) not realising there isn’t enough space for them. The caves are something else and was an experience, so gorgeous and so much to learn about. Can be rather slippy and muddy so wear shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. Some places you do have to duck and walk under due to low ceilings so take this into account if wanting to visit. Always being sturdy and strong on your feet too, I almost slipped and there is a lot of stairs! So much for children to do, my son was kept occupied the whole day we were there; 10:30 - 2:30! Highly recommend and we will be visiting again, it rained the whole day for us and didn’t ruin it at all!

The cave tour was great, with a small enough group you could still see and hear well. Only a couple of places where you had to drop low for height clearance. Good grip footwear/sensible shoes recommended. The rest of wookey hole was aimed mainly at kids with a dinosaur park, mini golf and amusements amongst the offerings. The cafe by the golf course was awful though. Cold coffee from the machines, very limited food offerings and the smell was less than pleasant. All 'hot' drinks were discarded. Staff were very friendly and professional.

Loved Wookey hole. Stayed at the lodges by the hotel, which were nice. The caves were great to go down into and the guide was informative. When you go back outside, there's a dinosaur wilderness which is good for little kids. We did the 4D cinema which was entertaining. If the weather hadn't been so bad, we would have done the crazy golf. But saying that, the weather added to the atmosphere, so didn't dampen out spirits. Highly recommend.

What a fantastic day out, great value for money, so interesting & informative with the history. The circus was ok though a big well done to the young ladies who performed. 4D cinema was fun ( though effects were slightly out of sync) little amusement inside was good, great array old fashioned amusement machines. Crazy golf was fun but gets busy.Food & drink available here or bring your own. It was well worth the drive from Shropshire.

Excellent caves but aren't for unsuitable for people who have disabilities due to uneven surfaces,loads of steps & a number of low ceilings heights. The views are stunning & there are a lot of things you can do in the caves. When you exit them you walk through a prehistoric area with animated dinosaurs, great for the kids. There's also a 4D cinema experience, circus( acrobats), mini golf, arcades ,(all included in the admission ticket.) & gift shop. There is a restaurant/cafe for food & drinks although choice is a little restricted.

Lovely time spent here, caves took approx 45 minutes with a guide giving lots of info. There is a 4D cinema and a circus 🎪 (weekends and school holidays). There is lots to do for children here.

We had a brilliant day, there is so much to do! Caves are great, 4D cinema was brilliant and my children loved the theatre. It’s really good value for money, having adventure golf included! We would definitely visit again

Brilliant day out for all ages. There is so much to see and do.Great information give ever where ,you can buy a very good guide book with all the information about the ship and docks yard.There is a dry dock, dock museum, Brunel museum the surrounding dock yard and best of all the ship.There are 3 main decks to explore. The staff are really lovely and can answer all your questions. There is a small cafe on the ship whit is very nice.Thete are toilets on the ship,in the museum and the shop.The museums are packed full of items related to the ship and Brunel .There is a well stocked shop and a cafe by the shop.You can use your tickets to return for a year.We spent about 5 hours exploring everything. I might recommend a vist

It was a great experience! The museum is absolutely stunning, especially the ship with the realistic figures — it truly takes your breath away. The lady dressed in the old-fashioned gown was amazing! I’ve visited the place twice, and each time I discover something new. Don’t forget to explore under the ship — I did that on my second visit — and above the ship, which I saw the first time. Totally worth visiting! 🚢✨

We visited here two years ago and wer impressed then, this visit did nothing to diminish that feeling. We really enjoyed the history of the Historic Dockyard and the SS Great Britain. The staff and volunteers are amazing and really friendly, plus the information they provided us was really interesting. The way it is layed out was very fluid allowing you to see an experience the life of this ship and the LIfe of Brunel. A must see when you visit Bristol.

You like ships and you enjoy history, so you're visiting right? Do, its worth it. Start in the shop, worth a peruse, then down and walk around the hull but with a little twist, you're under water or are you...? Worth mentioning, very humid in here but needs to be. Then, into the main museum and the history, not going to spoil the story here but interesting. Wind your way up and then onto the ship itself. Apparently, could house up to 700 passengers,good luck working out where they all slept! All in all,very enjoyable and would definitely bring the grandkids next time. Enjoy!

Awesome museum with friendly knowledgeable staff. The ship itself is an awesome sight to see and the information provided by both the museum and the Brunel museum really helps you approacciate how revolutionary his vessel was at the time and see the genius of it's designer. A fine example of British engineering at its best. Access to the ship is good including for wheel chairs and children although I would be careful in the lower steerage class areas as the floors are not that level. The fact you can return on one ticket for 12 months shows great value. Parking is practically next door to the ship although remember Bristol has signed up to the clean air charge so expect to be charged for visiting and bringing money to the city.

I really enjoyed visiting this museum. SS Great Britain was the first iron-hulled screw-propelled steamship in history. Isembard Kingdom Brunel, the architect of the ship was a very talented Victorian engineer who certainly left his mark, especially in Bristol. The Clifton Suspension Bridge was also designed by Brunel...

My partner and I had a great day out at the SS Great Britain. Despite both of us growing up near Bristol we had never visited before, but will definitely be back (and bringing all our friends and family!). The ship itself is so impressive and has a very immersive atmosphere. Steerage stole the show for us! We also enjoyed the Being Brunel museum - the carriage ride simulation was another highlight. Would also recommend stopping by the cafe at The Board Walk for a delicious latte and slice of cake. Finally, a big thanks to the volunteers on board the ship who took the time to talk us through the history of the ship's various voyages and 'eras' - their passion was infectious!

We The Curious — A Wedding Venue That’s Truly One of a Kind We’ve had the absolute pleasure of photographing weddings at all sorts of venues, but We The Curious stands out as something really special. The planetarium ceremony space is unlike any other — an immersive dome that creates this incredible intimate atmosphere, perfect for couples wanting something unique and memorable. Sure, the low light can be a bit tricky, but that just adds to the mood and makes for some truly cinematic photos. The rest of the venue offers great flexibility with beautiful event rooms and balconies overlooking Bristol’s cityscape. The terrace is a favourite spot for guests to relax and mingle, especially if the weather plays ball. Plus, having the museum open for guests to explore after the ceremony adds an extra layer of fun and interaction that you just don’t get elsewhere. From a photographer’s point of view, We The Curious is a playground full of interesting spaces and colourful backdrops — perfect for creative couple and group portraits. It’s a venue that’s quirky, thoughtful, and full of heart. We can’t recommend it enough for anyone looking to throw a wedding that’s as unique as their love story.

I can't say enough good things about my experience with We Are Curious Bristol! From the moment I stepped in, I felt a genuine sense of warmth and community. The team is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, and it truly shows in every interaction. They have a fantastic range of events and workshops that are both thought-provoking and fun. I recently attended one on sustainable living, and I came away feeling so inspired and equipped with practical tips I could actually use. It’s clear they put a lot of care and effort into everything they do. If you're looking for a welcoming, engaging, and genuinely curious space in Bristol, this is it. Highly recommend!

I went to We The Curious in Bristol with my nephew and honestly it ended up being one of those days where both the kid and the adult end up enjoying it just as much as each other. The place has this mix of science, colour and hands on stuff that keeps you busy without even realising how fast the time goes. We both had our own favourite bits. For me, I really liked how interactive everything is. Nothing just sits there gathering dust, you actually get to press things, spin things and figure stuff out. My nephew absolutely loved the colour octagon wheel, and I have to admit I did too. It is so bright and weirdly satisfying to play around with. We must have stood there for ages just messing with it. Another thing I really liked was how friendly the staff were. They actually talk to you like they enjoy being there. My nephew loved the little experiments section where you can try out different gadgets and watch stuff light up or move. It kept him completely focused which is rare for him. The planetarium though, that is the best bit of the whole place. You go in thinking it is just a dome with stars, but it is amazing and creative and feels like you get pulled into the show. Barney the host was brilliant as well. Really funny, really clear and you can tell he enjoys what he does. He made the whole thing feel alive, like you are actually floating around space instead of sitting in a room in Bristol. I also liked how much variety there is. Every corner has something different going on. My nephew enjoyed the section with shadows and lights, and we both liked the big mechanical displays you can play with. By the end of it we were both tired but still felt like we could have stayed another hour. Overall We The Curious is one of those places that gets science right. It is colourful, creative and fun without feeling like school. If you go with kids they will be buzzing, but even as an adult you end up enjoying it more than you expect.

Few things were interesting and interactive Very busy on our visit i would avoid day entry which was £20! entry after 3 is £11 and probably a lot quieter. We missed out on half of the activities because it was so over crowded. Following on others reviews on google it does seem more philosophical than science-y. Would still recommend to visit as a time filler

We had a fabulous time here on Sunday afternoon. It was well organised and really interesting. As 2 adults we thoroughly enjoyed "playing" with all the hands on exhibits. It's fascinating, fun and educational all at once. A lovely lady called Shannon demonstrated a few things for us and gave us some interesting facts too. She was really knowledgeable and helpful. The planetarium show was an added bonus and amazing with the 3D glasses! Arthur gave us an excellent interstellar "tour" which was fun for the children but still interesting for adults and fascinating for everyone. He has a lovely manner and explained everything very clearly. I would thoroughly recommend this to young and old alike. It's fun, interesting and the staff were all lovely. 😉

Had the most wonderful time here!! The exhibits are extremely fascinating and very interactive!! Super kid friendly, but also amazing to bring a date or a mate!! Would absolutely recommend the planetarium - thank you Hazel for such a wonderful experience guiding us through the stars. Can't wait to come back!

Generally great, and kids will love it. The half price after 3pm is a good option in these price tough times (although there is certainly enough to keep you busy more then 2hrs!) Naturally it can be pretty chaotic, but there is a wide range of interactive games, learning experiences and fun activities. Tickets brought online beforehand was fine but it's always so annoying having to create an account and set a silly, long password just to book tickets, grr 🥺 guest checkout plz

We visited Wells Cathedral on the recommendation of a former Wells Cathedral School student, and we enjoyed our time immensely. On entry one is struck by the magnificent 14th Century Scissors Arches that support the tower, then as one looks at the walls, that the cathedral is almost completely Early English Gothic style. Intricate carvings, some amusing (a man working to remove a thorn from his foot, someone with a toothache) are found everywhere. An amazing 14th Century astronomical clock - the second oldest in England - still works and marks quarter hours with a figure named Jack Blandifers striking bells with his hand and both feet while a set of knights on horseback joust each other. The north side of the cathedral holds the Chapter House, an absolutely stunning octagon with soaring fan vaulting and terrific acoustics. Outside, the West Front, which contains about 300 sculpted figures is currently undergoing restoration work, and because of this, much of the surface is hidden behind scaffolding while the stonemasons do their bit. Practical details: Admission when we visited was £15.00, with kids free. One can also purchase a Joint Ticket that includes entry to the adjacent Bishop’s Palace and Gardens. There is a nice café and well-stocked gift shop. Volunteer “Highlights” tours are available, and we spent an excellent hour with Mark. Parking was initially a bit of a challenge, but we eventually found space along side the Cathedral Green. Other parking options are available nearby.

Situated at one of the quietest towns in western England. The cathedral is an architectural marvel. Every inch of the walls tells you story from ancient to medieval history of the Christianity. A beautiful place where tranquility meets serenity.

This is a must see if you are in the area. The cathedral is lovely in all aspects. Make sure to do a docent tour, of which there are several. These volunteers have a wealth of knowledge, a good sense of humor, and will teach you many things. The architecture, furnishings, and artistry are evident everywhere in this fabulous cathedral.

At the foot of the Mendips Hills lies the charming town of Wells, famous primarily for its magnificent Cathedral Church of St. Andrew. In 705, an abbey was built on the site of a Roman mausoleum; the baptismal font from this abbey is still in use and is thus the oldest surviving object in the cathedral. In 909, the abbey church became the seat of Athelm, the first Bishop of Wells, a role the cathedral has fulfilled since 1245. Construction of the current cathedral began around 1180 and was completed in 1306. However, the building immediately proved too small, so work began on the cathedral extension, which was completed in 1490. Due to the various construction phases, the church also features various Gothic styles. The first phase is characterized by the Early English Gothic style, the second by the Decorated Gothic style, and the towers are in the Perpendicular Gothic style. The church was damaged twice, during the English Civil War and the Monmouth Rebellion, but the damage was repaired each time. In the mid-19th and late 20th centuries, the cathedral underwent a major restoration, allowing the 300,000 visitors who visit annually to admire the building in all its splendor. Wells Cathedral: an unmissable highlight of ecclesiastical architecture!

This is the best cathedral in Europe wish I could go every day to wells. the clock inside is very good. Must be a lot of work & cost to keep it going

Stunning piece of history which is so accessible to all. Situated in the centre of Wells, in amongst so many places to see. For me one of the highlights of the West country. So great

Beautiful cathedral, we very much enjoyed looking round, so much to see . The weather was not on are side, but we did look outside and up.

This place is fantastic! Thoroughly enjoyed our visit today with 2 teenagers who are not normally bird fans. The setting is beautiful, lovely trees and gardens, great facilities (vegan food options, thank you!) and the aviaries were clean & well kept. Had reservations about paying to see captive birds but learning more about the work done here to help endangered species made us happy to support the work. Flying displays were the best we've seen, so entertaining and very informative. Moved through the display at a good rate so not boring for kids and handlers were really knowledgeable and professional. Sound system actually worked so you could hear every word! Thoroughly recommended visiting and would go again.

Thoroughly enjoyed a day out here. The place isn’t brilliantly signposted to get to but once you’re there it’s brilliant. The place is kept up together really nicely, there’s a little cafe which does a great selection of food. The staff all around the site are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I’d say the flight displays are a must!!! You get to see some of the birds in action but I won’t tell you too much otherwise I’ll spoil it. Highly recommend a visit to here, you must book ahead online.

Incredible place doing some fantastic conservation work. Myself and my children enjoyed our visit, the displays are worth waiting around for. I used to visit when I was a child so it's lovely to bring my family back to enjoy the huge variety of birds. We took a picnic as there's lots of areas to sit, the cafe is well stocked too as we had a peak and bought a coffee. The gift shop was small but stocked with lots of goodies to choose at the end of our visit. Jemima and the team are so knowledgeable and you can tell how much care is gone into the birds enclosures, displays and the gardens are beautiful. Highly recommend you pay a visit, I also donate on my birthday each year as I know the funds are well used. Can't wait to go back.

Had a fantastic time at the International Centre for birds of Prey! Really great value for money, great flying demonstrations and great facilities. We took our 8 month old who loved looking at the flying demonstrations. There is great pram access and baby changing facilities. Really looking forward to going back, and definitely considering becoming a member. This facility does great work around the world. Highly recommend a visit.

Highly recommended! Very suitable to all age groups. Good value for money. Lots of birds are available to view and the demonstration is absolutely fun to watch. A lot to learn. The dogs are also a bonus. If you come across this, please visit and support them.

This place is amazing!! Cannot rate it highly enough! The best day out we've had in a very long time..... Even without the Covid induced lack of days out! 😂 The staff are very knowledgeable and clearly have a deep affection for all the birds in their care. There were 3 flying displays throughout our day and we didn't see the same bird fly twice. We spent all day there and honestly, it felt like we'd only been there for a short time despite being there all day. Really didn't want to leave! Will definitely be returning as soon as we can.

The centre is lovely, great selection of birds that you get very close to and great to looking at. The flying demonstration was good, however the sound on the PA kept cutting out. The only thing that let it down and it was kind of a big one for us was that during our picnic were we sat on the supplied picnic benches next to the coffee shop there 5 dogs that seemed to belong to the centre owners / staff that came around us and did nothing but beg for food and generally annoy us and spoil our picnic. I have no problem with dogs being allowed to roam around this kind of places but only ones that are fully trained. We also saw these same dogs using the parks grass and bench area as a toilet which again wasn't great. Shame really.
