Everything about this place is wonderful. I had an opportunity to visit yesterday (7 February) and, in spite of less than toasty weather, found it fascinating.
It’s a large area but fully accessible to people in wheelchairs. But be prepared to do some walking because there is a lot to see and […]

Steve, our blogging comrade over at Cymru66, has apparently been on ‘home turf‘ recently.
In addition to relaxing at such places as Hay-on-Wye, Penarth, St.Fagans and Cardiff Bay, he’s also taken part in a 10k race in Llanelli (Steve’s a running nut - a bit like me, but he seems to have more will power!).
