Erddig

Reviewed By Clivel_98 - Hereford, United Kingdom

This large house used to be owned by the Yorke family: they had the place for over 250 years. They were also magpies: nothing ever got thrown away. However, toward the end of the Yorkes’ ownership, the house was allowed to get in a dilapidated state. So much so that the National Trust didn’t want to take it on. When they saw the collection of items, though, they changed their minds. Now, Erddig is well on the way to complete resurrection. It is stuffed with the Yorkes’ collection, and the rooms have been put back to the form they would have been in at their best. A wonderful place - it is also in massive grounds with some excellent formal gardens and outbuildings. Also a restaurant, cafe, tea garden and ice cream parlour.

St Giles Parish Church

Reviewed By Big_Jeff_Leo - St Helens, United Kingdom

This is one of the finest Parish Churches in Wales. The building in its present form dates mainly from the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 16th centuries. The impressive tower stands 135 feet high, and was complete in 1506. The churchyard is entered through wrought-iron gates, completed in 1720 - these are not to be missed. Inside you will find some exceptional stained glass windows by the studio of Burne-Jones in the north aisle and a series of windows by Charles Eamer Kempe and C.E. Kempe and Co in the south aisle. Also seek out the tomb of Elihu Yale, benefactor of Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, which is located in the churchyard. There are also many splendid war memorials and plaques, as well as the memorial chapel to the Royal Welsh Fusiliers.

Xplore! Science Discovery Centre

Xplore! Science Discovery Centre is the newest and most exciting attraction for absolutely everybody! From the people that brought you 'Techniquest Glyndwr', this fantastic science centre comes with a whizz and a bang with amazing experiments, curious exhibits and exciting live shows whatever the weather.

Reviewed By 617beew

Very reasonable price, I had a 9 year old and a 13 year old with me and they both loved it. Good range of activities, staff were friendly and helpful. I recommend catching one of the 'shows' they will let you know the times when you pay and escort the group to a science lab upstairs where you can watch and get involved with experiments, the kids loved the liquid nitrogen - very cool! Well delivered and explained to a variety of age groups who were watching. We would recommend this place, we went on a rainy day and it was a great way to spend the afternoon.

Alyn Waters Country Park

Reviewed By NSD82 - Chester, United Kingdom

We come here all the time and it really is the most wonderful place to go all year round, this time as spring is on its way! The caffi is absolutely outstanding with amazing staff and incredible well priced food for all types of dietary requirements including home made cakes and snacks. I would suggest it is under priced as the portions and staff are so awesome you could charge a little more and still have very happy customers! The car park is £1 all day, as of March 2020, and they do offer a mobile way of paying if you have no cash - but clearly as with all council run car parks if you don't pay, it's at your own risk. There are two play parks for those who are under 5/6 and those a little older which are really good fun and stimulate the mind. The obvious missing bit I haven't mentioned here is the massive outdoor space which kids, adults and animals alike can enjoy and go mad in. We'll be back as soon as we can. Much love, ZEN family.

Acton Park

Reviewed By mxrshmallowqueen - North Wales, United Kingdom

One of my favourite things to do is go for a walk around Acton Park. It’s always so beautiful, no matter what time of year it is. It’s such a friendly and relaxing environment. I would definitely recommend taking a walk around Acton Park if you get the chance.

Nant Mill Country Park

Reviewed By 66stuartc - Willesborough, United Kingdom

we parked at the visitor centre( note this and the toilets are only open at weekends) parking was only £1.Whilst there are many walks The one I did was walking past the visitor centre on the left then go up an ascent, at the road junction turn right. descend a bit and look for a kissing gate on the left see photo. go though this and then follow the river to a waterfall,then a little later a weir  This is the fastest point then retrace you steps back to car 0ark-this is 2.8miles and takes approx. 1hour. you start above the river but do descend along river when dogs can have a drink and paddle. Highly recommend especially on hot days when the shade from the trees and the water will be welcomed by your dogs
