May Half Term at Dinefwr

As part of our big bird spotting year, 'Birding with Branwen', we invite the birds of Dinefwr to take centre stage this half term. Join us for a week full of fun, activities, and feathered friends.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Explore this half term at Dinefwr. Step inside Newton House and discover a range of fun family-friendly activities. From imaginative play and craft sessions to an opportunity for collaborative creativity, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Climb and clamber in the Old Laundry room which opens on Saturday 23 May with brand new ‘Tyre Tricks’. This reimagined space, filled with tyres saved from landfill, offers the perfect place to play, build and let imaginations run wild.

Inside the house, each room will be packed full of fun and games for all the family. Make your mark on our collaborative drawing table in the dining room, create your own puppet in the pantry and enjoy a family board game in the drawing room. There plenty more to explore…
