Climbing is a great way to test your strength, balance and agility. As both an indoor and outdoor sport it can be done whatever the weather! You can try out bouldering, climbing and traversing lower walls (around 3 meters) without the assistance of rope. Bouldering basics can be mastered in a few hours and climbing centers will have graded routes allowing you to start out on the easier paths and work your way up. Rock climbing or high ropes is climbing vertically with the assistance of ropes and using safety harnesses, the walls are around 15 meters tall. You will need a good nerve for heights for this activity! Again, beginner sessions are available as are graded routes.

Climbing

Whatever your child's age there is always something to enjoy. Get cracking in  a multi-level play area where kids can climb, clamber and slide over all sorts of adventurous obstacles. What’s next? What about a ball pond where your children can dip and dive in a pool full of colourful balls? All of the above would make for serious family fun. Of course parents are not forgotten either as a cafe is never far away. You can relax with a tasty coffee and a slice of cake. What more could you want?

Pottery is an ancient craft and great fun! Sometimes a little messy, anyone can have a go at either hand building a pot, or getting to grips with a throwing wheel. You can create something beautiful and uniquely yours in no time at all. Families can enjoy together and kids as young as 2 can play with clay, or have a go at painting a pre-made pot. It’s the perfect wet weather or winter activity.

Pottery

Spend the day creating your very own handcrafted pot, vase, or bowl. Or if you have less time on your hands why not try painting a premade version?  A relaxing, indoor family activity. Perfect for creatives and on a rainy day visit one of the many ceramic cafes for coffee, tea, cakes, and of course, crafting!

Gwent

Wales is a country made for incredible holidays, whether it be along the stunning coastline, up a mountain or exploring a castle ruins.  Holidays in Wales can be about adrenaline fuelled adventure, culture, exploration or relaxation - anything from abseiling down a waterfall to swimming in the crystal clear waters.  If your family enjoy rock pooling and paddling then look no further than Wales' safe, sandy and family friendly beaches.  With miles of golden sand and dunes, many of the best beaches are relatively quiet, so you won't find huge crowds.  Away form the coastline, discover the extraordinary Snowdonia National Park where you can visit an island, take a boat trip, a ride on the railway or climb Snowden itself.  Whatever type of holiday you enjoy, you will find it in Wales.
