Ruthin Gaol and Nantclwyd y Dre historic house and gardens all set to reopen in March

Ruthin Gaol and Nantclwyd y Dre historic house and gardens are looking forward to welcoming visitors back after the winter break when the heritage sites open their doors on Saturday, 23 March.

The historic sites offer a captivating journey through time. An atmospheric and compelling insight into former prison life can be found at the Gaol, and a discovery of Welsh family life throughout the ages at Nantclwyd y Dre, a Grade I listed timber-frame holding ‘Hidden Gem’ status for its faithfully recreated interiors, and enchanting gardens.

This season, alongside interactive exhibits, guided tours and hands-on demonstrations, visitors are challenged to escape the Gaol and become time travellers at Nantclwyd y Dre as part of new activities that bring history to life in ways that are sure to create lasting memories!

Together, the sites offer the perfect day out for families, history enthusiasts, and anyone with an interest in discovering a little more about Ruthin’s social and architectural past. And, opening just in time for the Easter break, an Easter trail will be running at Nantclwyd y Dre over the 23rd, 28th, 29th and 30th March (10:30 - 17:00, last entry at 16:00), included in the normal ticket price.

Ruthin Gaol and Nantclwyd y Dre will be open to the public from 23 March onwards, with operating hours and ticket information available on the Council's website.
