Great value, welcoming staff, historic and educational. Fun and interactive. Lots to learn and several rooms to enter each with their own information. Audio guide as part of your entry was a great touch. You scan and listen or skip on move on to the next bit. Nice gift shop. Set in a quant little town. Car park available nearby within 5 minutes walk for a standard surcharge.
Amazing little gem! We found this on a quite rainy bank holiday Monday when everything else in the area was closed!nStaff were friendly, and the jail was aimed at adults and kids alike. My sons loved the audio guides on the way round.nWe stayed just over an hour, as it's very small, and over half of it is closed off to the public due to it storing archives.nWorth a visit if you're in the area!
A great find, thanks to Google nWe paid our £9 entrance fee. This gives 20% discount when visiting Nant Clwyd Y Dre.nThe girls on the desk were lovely. I forgot to ask their names, sorry girls.nOff we went exploring. We declined the audio tour, but it is available with a map.nPlenty of information boards around detailing the history, including its use as a munitions factory during the Second World War.nThis is a great place for families. Not just little kids get to dress up Yes, we did. Guys, you need to make bigger frocks nAnyway, we enjoyed our visit, well done.nA few souvenirs available, toilet facilities and a lift for those that need it.nDownside, no cafe.
I've been waiting for RG to open for the 2025 seson so that I could visit. Paid parking close by.nA friendly welcome from staff.n£9 entry which included an audio tour.nWell laid out and interesting stories and facts throughout.nGreat Escaper Trail for kids to do.nThere is a lift for disabled customers.nNo cafe.nNo shop as such but a few reasonably priced souvenirs available.nWe spent about an hour and a half at RG but I can imagine if you have kids it would take longer.nWell worth trip.nReally enjoyed it.
Lovely museum to visit, the audio guides and the interactive screen at the end really added to the experience, and theres interesting things to keep kids interested too.
