Ideas for...

Family days out
Make a day of it by combining a visit to a family-friendly Cadw property with a trip to one or more of Wales’s other attractions.
Castles for kids
If the drama of simply wandering the battlements of our fabulous fortresses isn’t quite enough, we’ve gone out of our way to make them come alive for a younger audience.
Rainy days
Don’t let a lack of sun put you off exploring our amazing places. Many Cadw properties are sheltered from the elements, allowing you to enjoy them come rain or shine.
