Sitting at the southern end of the beautiful Rhymney Valley, Caerphilly is a town developed over the centuries from a Roman stronghold. Jam-packed with fun, family activities and places to see, whether you’re visiting on business, or looking forward to a day out, Caerphilly has something to suit.   

Swathed in historical importance, Caerphilly Castle is a great place to start, and Transport for Wales has 2-for-1 deals on visiting this ancient monument. Covering a total of 30 acres (three times the size of the Principality Stadium in Cardiff!), this impressive site has served many purposes over the centuries, from formidable fortress to fairy-tale palace. Only Windsor Castle in England can beat it for scale and sheer grandeur! 

For some great kid-friendly activities, visit Funtastic. With the focus on fun and adventure, there’s all manner interactive toys and games for every age, including, for the big kids, go-karting and laser tag! 

Around the town itself, the undulating landscape, and dark, shady Cymcarn Forest lend themselves to a demanding mountain bike challenge, or if you prefer, a relaxing stroll. There’s nothing better on a summer’s day than pausing by the trickling brook, listening to the birds, and laying out a small picnic! 

If shopping is your thing, Caerphilly has that covered, too, with high street brands, and quaint boutiques showcasing hand made jewellery, knitwear, and delicious homemade Welsh fudge.
