National Botanic Garden of Wales

The whole family will enjoy a day out at the National Botanic Garden of Wales near Carmarthen. Within over 500 acres you will find plenty of kids activities alongside an amazing collection of different plant varieties and themed gardens to delight adults.

Visit the Bee Garden, the Japanese Garden and the Great Glasshouse. Wander through the restored parkland and the Waun Laus Nature Reserve. In the Double Walled Garden learn about the evolution of flowering plants. There is a children’s play area and a wide choice of trails including the half-mile Gruffalo Trail featuring huge sculptures of characters from the books.

Another highlight will be the British Bird of Prey Centre. Take a stroll around the aviaries and find out more about native species. There are usually daily flying shows allowing visitors to see golden eagles, peregrine falcons and red kites in flight.
