Greenmeadow Community Farm has been a working farm for over 250 years. Set in over 120 acres, we have a wide range of pedigree and rare animals which you can come and meet up close. Nestled in the heart of Cwmbran, this is truly a Community Farm in every sense of the word, working closely with and serving the local community and welcoming visitors from far and wide. Our cosy farmhouse cafe, Cafe Cwtch, offers kids favourites and a selection of homemade specials. We aim to use as much local produce as we can, supporting local farmers, growers and suppliers. The farm shop is full of tractors and animals to take home after your visit. There really is something for everyone. We would love to see you soon! Please note we are open 10am - 5pm (last entry at 4pm) seven days a week, whatever the weather! The farm is closed for deep cleaning and maintenance from 24th December - 31st January each year.

We came here with our granddaughter wed. It brought back wonderful memories for us as we used to bring our children when they were young. We had a lovely few hours and we were lucky as the sun was shining (granddaughters fave was the chickens so we had to get her one from the gift shop). Sadly we were more tired than our GD ???? but she had a ball. We will come with a picnic next time ????

A great place to shop, best rail and bus links also FREE Parking. Nice places to eat and drink and even the beach during summer school holidays besides this many attractions and displays are put on through the year. Marks and Spencer, most of the best super markets and some independent shops. Almost all undercover therefore can take a pavement coffee even in the rain. At the moment a mini train is circling the town. Also disability shop to hire wheelchairs to assist les able visitors. if you've never been give it a try, I don't think it will disappoint.

Had a lovely walk here yesterday. We parked at the road resource centre which is further away so we could enjoy a longer walk. We walked through a woodland area and then over the road to the lake. It’s a lovely stroll around the lake and there were plenty of people also enjoying the dry weather. Plenty of swans, ducks and geese around and on the lake. unfortunately the shop was shut before we finished walking around to it but I’m sure during the warmer months it is jam packed. The walk to our car park and back totalled 3 miles so a longer route if that’s what you’re after.

This was our second visit to the Congress, first in the evening - found parking very easy as stated in the reply to my question which was answered very promptly - and it was FREE in the car park underneath the shopping centre (Monmouth car park), very rare to find these days. The show was superb, New Amen Corner are a brilliant group and entertained all evening with a vast selection of 60's songs, not a minute was wasted with 'trivial chat' also accompanying Mike D'Abo and Mike Pender doing a selection of their hits. It is a lovey theatre - with very friendly staff serving tea, coffee or an alcohol drink upstairs before the show and in the interval. There is plenty of leg room between the rows of seats and the sound and lighting system is very good, altogether a great evening. We look forward to our next visit in the near future.

We love that this pub is dog friendly as long as you sit in the conservatory area or outside, apart from Sunday’s when they are too busy to allow dogs. We regularly go here for large family gatherings and the food is always excellent. They allow you to book a table and sometimes you get the whole conservatory for a large party. The pâté is fantastic! Would highly recommend this pub, good value for money too.

Pottery Painting & Keepsake Studio. We have been capturing the handprints, footprints & fingerprints locally for over 7 years. We relocated to our cosy new studio in January 2018 and a very warm welcome awaits you. Either book an appointment to capture your baby's tiny feet or create a special keepsake gift for a loved one. We specialise in clay impressions, prints on pottery, silver fingerprint jewellery and 3D castings. More info can be found on our website. We also offer a paint your own pottery studio where you can call in at any time to unleash your creative side. It does get busy at weekends and during school holidays so booking is recommended but not essential. Prices from £6. No additional studio fees. We serve hot & cold drinks along with a few treat snacks. Feel free to bring a little lunchbox for the children as we do not serve lunch. Our little courtyard garden is open for painting on warmer days.
