The historic sites offer a captivating journey through time. An atmospheric and compelling insight into former prison life can be found at the Gaol, and a discovery of Welsh family life throughout the ages at Nantclwyd y Dre, a Grade I listed timber-frame holding ‘Hidden Gem’ status for its faithfully recreated interiors, and enchanting gardens.

This season, alongside interactive exhibits, guided tours and hands-on demonstrations, visitors are challenged to escape the Gaol and become time travellers at Nantclwyd y Dre as part of new activities that bring history to life in ways that are sure to create lasting memories!
