Absolutely hysterical night, Jasper was so quick witted and kept us entertained with his jokes, magic and mind reading. Very brave man to accommodate 16 women alone. Kept to covid regulations and wore mask and plastic screen. Would strongly recommend this for a group looking for an evening of surprise!

What an amazing park, that seemed to have everything: wood sculptures, an amazing variety of stunning trees, a viaduct, that you can walk up to and see trains travelling along, a beautiful cafe that seemed very popular, flat mown areas for walking, woods, streams and a boardwalk down to a pebble beach. We stood looking at the viaduct and noticed acorns dropping onto our heads. A ranger walked by and informed us that the acorns were being thrown at us by a group of territorial squirrels! She stated that if we watched for long enough we would see the squirrels throwing acorns at us from the 2 huge majestic oak trees. We only saw one of the squirrel, which we named "Asbo". We also named the other elusive two " Delinquent" & "Thug" Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Fonmon Castle is situated within a 340-acre rural estate in the beautiful Vale of Glamorgan. Just 30 minutes from Cardiff and the M4, Fonmon Castle is often considered a ‘hidden gem’. Built in 1180, this unique home has been owned by just two former families in its 800-year history. Combining history, charm and adventure, Fonmon Castle offers beautiful Georgian interiors, perfect for business meetings, private dinners and small celebrations, whilst outside you are surrounded by acres of beautiful grounds. At the end of the south lawn is a shady dell & the folly; within the walled gardens, there are several different garden rooms - an enclosed scented garden with thatched summerhouse, flower-filled secret garden, herb beds & an area for growing produce for our kitchens. New for spring 2020, we present our contemporary Wedding Village featuring our ‘three-top-hat’ Tipi for weddings & special events; a medieval farm & grange hamlet where history comes alive & nature walk with Dino park.

Barry Island Pleasure Park. A funfair. Under new ownership. Fun for all the family at bargain prices
Reviewed By Shelbegrn - East Garston, United Kingdom
The kids loved it! As great grandparents we're a bit past the thrills of roller coasters but the kids loved all the traditional fairground rides. The ghost train, the roller coasters and bumper cars were all enjoyed. Be warned: It's easy to spend £100 on rides if you have 3 or more kids that want to try everything!
