Croft Castle and Parkland

Croft Castle boasts over 1500 acres of surrounding farm, park and woodland to explore. The castle itself has numerous intriguing options for kids including getting hands on with the grand piano and access to vintage toys and games like snakes and ladders, tiddly winks, train sets and mah-jong! Plus they offer guided attic and cellar tours for a bit more historical insight and education.

Outside, kids over 7 will instantly head for the Orienteering course and the natural style Adventure Play Area but there are also several mini play areas aimed at the smaller kids. But when they've let off some steam, the Walled Garden is also great for exploring and comes with bee hives, historic orchards, some really ancient trees, a vineyard, the Georgian stable block and a mid-restoration glasshouse. Further into the parkland you will find an Iron Age hill fort with terrific views across the Brecon beacons. The St Michaels and All Angels church is also very pleasant to peek around.
