Llancaiach Fawr

This superbly restored gentry manor house is no ordinary heritage attraction. History here is tangible. The costumed servants of the house are living and working in 1645 and allow you to share and engage in their world. Fires crackle, candles flicker and the sounds and smells of domestic life make your visit a memorable experience of the past. It takes a moment to attune your ear to the unfamiliar speech within the Manor itself, but within seconds of your warm welcome you become immersed in the time of the Civil Wars and the cares and concerns of ordinary people living in extraordinary times.

Went there on a very wet day, and, coincidentally, it was end of term, so no School parties. We were the only visitors when we were there, but the staff still went the extra mile to give us the full experience. They do re enactments, so the staff dress as servants and speak in a kind of old English that was still perfectly understandable. It is set at the time of the Civil War and the house is furnished/displayed accordingly. So it was a double delight, the house was lovely, but the role playing added an extra dimension. Really appreciated the lengths the 'servants' went to in order to enrich the experience. Also, we ate a meal in the cafe that was very nice. A great day out!

Funtastic

Reviewed By Amandaje17

Had our Son’s 5th Birthday Party here. Hired out the Play Centre using the exclusive hire option. Absolutely fabulous and so much better especially when you have a large party of children. Every child had a wonderful time and even the adults were able to relax and have a cuppa knowing that the children were safe and happy. We had the cold buffet food option, tasted fresh and delicious, lots of choice too. We also hired 3 of the mascots, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse and Marshall from Paw Patrol, the kids loved it, each character interacted with party songs on the stage and posed for photos with the children even though my little munchkin was a bit shy. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly throughout. I would highly recomend the same options for a childrens party for anyone thinking of booking!

My first visit anywhere with my daughters (6 and 10 months) since March and what a fantastic place for us to go to. The staff were very friendly and the play areas were very clean. Both my daughters had a fantastic time and we will definately be returning! Such a fab place and felt very safe and welcoming. Thank you!

Tenpin Cardiff

Reviewed By roobellina - Cardiff, United Kingdom

We held a birthday party here for our 10 year old and 11 friends. The lanes were ready for us, squash was there ready and waiting, balloons were provided. The kids had 2 games of bowling - the food was brought to them at their lane so they didn’t have to miss any bowling time - they were given sweets for bowling strikes and spares. The staff were polite and helpful. We were left to our own devises but when we did need something it was done straight away. The birthday girl was given a bowling pin with her name written on and all her friends got to sign it - a lovely touch. All in all, a great time!
