Elan Valley

Reviewed By raserfamily - Stonehouse, United Kingdom

Here for a few days mid August. The dams are impressive and worth a visit to them all as they are all different and the countryside is amazing, plenty of walks to do. Lots of people on bikes as well. Dog friendly.

We had an amazing time doing the falconry experience, Tim is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the birds which made the experience that much more special. All the birds were beautiful but meeting Matilda the snowy owl was my personal favourite. There are other animals on site witch we were happy to see and seeing the pigs party trick was a real treat. We will definitely be returning to do the other experiences on offer.

Red Kite Feeding Station & Rehabilitation Centre

Reviewed By MikeLinda23 - Llandudno, United Kingdom

Long day trip from Llandudno, and easy to find. Nice cafe and very good welcome/service. Enjoyable walk around the farm trail and then the kites!! Absolutely fantastic spectacle, whether you are a twitcher or not!! Beautiful birds, and, as they say, must have been 300 plus there as well as the odd buzzard. Excellent.

One of the six Victorian Elan Valley reservoirs, each with superb and wonderful engineering and views to die for. Well worth driving round and stopping off at the various car parks, or going for walks across the glorious countryside.
