I've taken my little girl lots of times, on our own, with friends and with family. Each time has been different and we have discovered different parts each time. It is a really cheap day out entrance is free, and if you take a picnic you can have a great day out for very little expense. There is lots to see and learn, and also lots of spaces to run about, last time my little girl was paddling in the pond with her friends!!!!

The Museum of Welsh Life at St Fagans is a great day out for all the family. The grounds of St Fagans are now home to many traditional buildings that have been salvaged from across Wales. Chapels, farmhouses, cottages have been rebuilt for everyone to look around and get a feel for how people lived years ago. There is also an old train and a row of shops including a grocer shop where you can buy some nostalgic sweet treats. The grounds and gardens are extensive and perfect for letting the kids run and play and there is also a great enclosed playground. There are no shortages of outdoor picnic tables to enjoy your packed lunch and you can also enjoy a horse and cart ride. This is a really great day out combining a slice of welsh history with the outdoors! Fantastic!

We always have a great day out. We even paid for the annual subscriptions to use the facilities there. Its even better now since it is free to get in. Children can run around without the need to worry about cars. There are no dogs around...just nature. They love to go into each of the houses and look at the difference in each of them while my mum could just relax with a cup of tea. we have lovely picnics overthere and also if the weather is not good there are lovely restaurants over there. For treats, there is a 'rail' ride and also a horse and carriage rides provided. There is a lovely bakery right in there.To round off the day we usually have lovely ice creams and the children also have a good run in the playground too in their respective sections for the older children and the younger ones. The lists can go on and on.......

It is easily accessible, fairly buggy friendly and the best part of all is that it is free. All you have to pay for is the car park which is reasonably priced. You can take a picnic and eat it on the grounds, you can wander around the old fashioned shops, the children can play in the playground and the adults can get a history lesson! My favourite thing there at the moment is the house of the future which shows how we can be more environmentally friendly.
