Nantclwyd y Dre Opening
Nantclwyd y Dre will be reopening for the 2018 season on the 7th of April. Once again we look forward to welcoming visitors to explore Wales’ oldest timbered town house and experience what life was like for the people who lived here through the ages from its medieval beginnings through to World War II.
Over the winter work has continued on the gardens at Nantclwyd with our fantastic volunteers contributing to the upkeep and development of the gardens throughout the winter whatever the weather!
Nantclwyd’s Gardener, Hayley Proudfoot, says that this spring visitors will be able to see 24 different varieties of tulips, daffodils, bluebells and blossom on our fruit trees all found throughout the garden. Our 40 different rose varieties will be coming into bloom while the vegetable beds will be progressing nicely with heritage varieties, including skirret, multi coloured carrots, pink fir apple potatoes and broad beans.
We’re also very happy to announce Nantclwyd y Dre has once again won the Hidden Gem Accolade 2018 for ‘attractions that deliver an outstanding and memorable experience for visitors’!
