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!

Spent the day in an around the heritage centre during lovely weather in April. You can park your car here and walk down to Three Cliffs Beach which is a couple of miles there and back. The centre itself provides hours of fun and knowledge about old industry in the Gower, plenty to do for all age groups. We were able to take the dog round too which was helpful not leaving him in the car or with one of us standing outside. Food and drink at the cafe was excellent, as was the cakes in the bakery outside. We were also able to charge the EV here as they have two rapid chargers from instavolt. So good we came back again before heading home!

Great place to visit and experience how flour was milled. Also other great exhibits, including an Anderson bomb shelter used in WW2. Good cafe too with a wide choice of snacks and drinks.

Lovely little place. Stream running by. Lots of walks for dogs. Have to give a huge shout out to the young girl working in the cafe/gift shop. She was so helpful and a pleasure to meet. 10 out of 10 for customer service goes to her.

Wonderful place to spend a few hours, very dog friendly and lots to do for children, with a fabulous play area with ride on tractors. Lots of information about the local area from way back. Huge water wheel, very impressive and various made up shops to show how things used to be many years ago, old money examples etc. cafe and picnic areas. The staff were very helpful, friendly and accommodating, highlight of our visit to the Gower.
