Voted best beach in Wales by lonely planet 2022. One of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Take a picnic and some walking boots and you can walk all the way to Llangenith across the hills.

During the summer months There are many activities going on in the Park. We have been lucky enough to previously have hosted Proms in the Park, Olly Murs, Catfish and the bottlemen.
The ornamental gardens are beautiful to walk around all year and botanical gardens are stunning.

Sightseeing
A beautiful walk through the Illston Valley woods.
As you go through the kissing gate you will see the giants grave to your left, this is a partially restored Neolithic chambered tomb.
As you walk further along you will see a sign and a path going to the right that will take you up to Cat Hole Cave. Home to one of the oldest cave drawings found in Britain, about 14000 years old (you cant see the picture, but if you hunt for the cave you can look through the bars!) The cave is on the right you need to find a foot path that is going up the hill (after the stone tunnel).
