Folly Farm

If you are looking for a fun and educational family day out in Wales then there is nowhere better than Folly Farm! With a zoo, farm, fairground and indoor and outdoor adventure play you'll leave understanding why it has twice been voted 'Best Family Day Out in Pembrokeshire and Wales'.

Reviewed By Pinkpuma36 - Holbeach, United Kingdom

As far as days out with kids in the UK go this is one of the best. There were giraffes, zebras, penguins and camels that you could get up close to, and Hugo the lion is stunning. He even gave us our money’s worth when he fancied getting it on with the lioness :-D There is a petting farm indoors and a vintage funfair also indoors with many rides for all ages (great if the weather is poor) There are a few rides outside too including a twister and big wheel and also some go carts. We were there from opening to closing and were never bored once. There’s a big pirate ship to play in with an outdoor play area too. My son loved the huge sand area with the sit on diggers too. There really is so much to do and everything looked clean and well maintained. Even paying for the rides (token system) on top of the entry fee, I’d still say it was well worth the money considering what you get for your money. It was less than a third of the price we paid to get in to Legoland and value for money can’t be compared. We did so much more at Folly Farm as you don’t spend the whole day in a queue (even in the summer holidays) and it never felt overcrowded as it’s so spaced out, so a far more enjoyable fun day out. Can’t fault it.

Tir Prince Fun Park

Reviewed By 523hayleyr - Conwy, United Kingdom

Went here last weekend and the kids had a ball, they had a brilliant time. Park nicely kept clean, no rubbish flying around. The food kiosk was great, very clean and very reasonably priced. Very friendly staff all around. Like the idea of paying with tokens for rides. Our kids age 7 and 3 loved this fair. The only downside was the toilets, they really are awful and do I clean and only two cubicles for the volume of people that attend the market and fair. Will definitely go again.
