The National Botanic gardens of Wales

There is plenty to see and do. Refectory and gift shops on site. I started off with a short walk through the Arboretum and from there you have a number of options. The full circuit of the estate takes about 2 hours on foot. I managed to visit the main points of interest in the time given but I would say that you'd need more time if you wanted to see everything. The walk around the large glass house was the highlight of my visit. Rare and endangered plants from six areas of the world can be found here. They have recreated the arid and sub tropical climates from different parts of the world in this huge greenhouse.
