Love this place. Lots of different activities for the kids to do. Hens and other interesting birds are caged for your enjoyment, and there's a few ducks and geese to chat too if you're that way inclined. If you like a sandy playground, you're in luck! There's a sandy playground. There's a little bit of history and a relaxing wander, so it's a charming day out. We've been here a few times now and have never had a bad time. It's changed recently and the food has moved to the main entrance area, when they now do tea and baked goods. The old cafe space is run by a different company (why?) and was deserted when we popped our heads in. So that's not going to work. Also there's a tiny cinema and excellent silversmith nearby, so that's another feather in its cap. Go heritage!

We found this place because we were looking for a fast Electric Vehicle/ EV charger but while charging we discovered it was a treasure trove. We learnt all about the activities they had on site, bought some lovely local produce from the shop and had a good lunch. There is a bakery near the car park as well as baked goods inside (savories like pasties as well as brownies etc) as well as hot food available. They had a gluten and dairy free flapjack which was great and they were able to cook a gluten and dairy free meal of chicken bites and sweet chilli dip. They had dairy free milk available for hot drinks.

Gower Heritage Centre is a wonderful place to visit with so much history to enjoy. There is a working water wheel, fun duck races in the canal, and the staff are always friendly. The food and drinks are delicious and it is a great experience for the whole family. Highly recommended.

Bigger than you would expect when you arrive. Lots of different items to see including animals for the children. Nice place to visit whatever the weather brings. Would say that the car park is rather small but that only adds to the charm of it all. Nice Bakery close by too.
