Welshpool 1940's Weekend

Get yourselves ready to transport yourself back to the 1940s and imagine you are in a small town were evacuated children are arriving from the major industrial towns of the North West, soldiers are going back to barracks after being on leave, aircrew are heading off to airfields of Shropshire. So in the words of the song “Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag, and smile, smile, smile.”

Derwen Garden Centre & Farm Shop

Reviewed By 78jennb

As a group of six we went for afternoon tea at the Derwen - Very welcoming and l can highly recommend the lovely choice of sandwiches served and homemade delicious cakes ( one of our party was a vegetarian and got her sandwiches served separately which was a nice touch ) - and as much coffee or tea needed . Reasonably priced ring to book to find out ????The lady who served us was very friendly and attentive. Would book again for a special celebration.

LLyn Coed y Dinas

Created from a gravel pit, quarried to provide material for the creation of the Welshpool bypass, Llyn Coed y Dinas is a fantastic home for all sorts of wildlife. Some of these call the reserve home all year round, while others visit at specific times of the year, either to breed and raise their young or to shelter from the winter weather. Some prefer to use the site as a “wildlife service station

Reviewed By CazzaWestMids - The Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield, United Kingdom

Spent a lovely couple of hours here buying plants, gifts for our home and having a general browse. We stopped and had coffee as well which was nice. The place is massive so you do need to probably spend a couple of hours there to get through everything. The parking is excellent, staff were very helpful and polite and there was even what looked like a soft play area for younger children. We would recommend and will be visiting again soon.
