A lovely walk that includes a an opportunity in the season to pick bilberries and blackberries as you walk. Great for younger children and short walks, but can be extended to a beautiful hilltop ramble.

A delicious range of Italian food, at a reasonable price. Excellent service, sometimes a little slower than I'd like. A variety of beers and wines and a great tasting pizza. Nice open ambience.

Just fab for a big walk end, a break in the day or a big tub for the night with friends. They have a shop onsite and an honesty box that you can get all sorts of yummy home made ice-creams and treats from. Take cash for the honesty box, they take card when the shop is open.

great time out, even if it's raining. hard work on the lake if it's windy though. long sloping shallow to the lake makes it great for newbies and kids. go early. book ahead. remember to pay for parking (located by the entrance). really reasonable hire prices!

running around and shooting paint bullets at your mates. If you like it, you'll enjoy it here. My kids have spent many hours chasing friends in this woodland area, well laid out with trenches, benches, hides and generally good spots to combat each other.

Llangollen Wharf is one of the major attractions in the North Wales market town of Llangollen and is now part of a World Heritage Site!
From the Wharf you can embark on either a horse drawn boat trip along the feeder for the main canal, or a motorised aqueduct cruise which takes you across the famous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct. Both these trips take in the magical sights and sounds of the beautiful Llangollen Canal and all boats have inside and outside seating areas, making them an all-weather bonus.
There's also a 2 hour version which take you past the Horseshoe Falls all the way to the Chain Bridge on the River Dee! This trip departs every Saturday and Sunday throughout the season and Tuesdays in the school holidays.
