Erddig

“On a beautiful but very hot day we visited this House and gardens. The road into the car park is winding and flanked by beautiful fields.Plenry of car parking and disabled parking. There is a shop,small cafe seating is outdoors in the garden,restaurant toilets and a book shop.Food is the usual National Trust fare but is served quickly to you.There is a lift avaliable if needed. The house is beautiful and the guides in each room are very knowledgeable. The gardens are well set out with plenty of shaded areas and seating .For the children random games were set out hook a duck ,tin can alley,skittles etc.They also have a fantastic forest play park which my husband couldn't resist trying out. Wished they would have had this when my children were young. So all in all well worth a visit and yes we will return.”

“​Erddig is easily one of the most unique and charming National Trust properties in Wales. What makes the house so special is its focus on the "below stairs" social history-it tells the fascinating stories of the servants who worked there through an impressive collection of portraits, original rooms, and artifacts. ​Outside, the estate is massive. The 18th-century walled gardens are stunning for a quiet stroll, and the surrounding 1,200-acre parkland offers beautiful woodland and riverside walks. ​It's also brilliant for families. Little ones will love the Wolf’s Den-a giant two-acre natural play area tucked into the woods with balance beams, log fortresses, and den building. Add in the cozy café in the old outbuildings and the friendly staff, and it makes for a fantastic, peaceful day out for all ages!”

“It was the apple 🍏🍎 harvest festival and the place was pretty full but still loads of room for everyone. The musical group and singing groups were super. The house memorable and the volunteers all really helpful. Even the car parking attendants who looked very stern but weren't really. Great parking set up and we were out really fast at the end of the day. Fabulous food in the restaurant and service was really efficient given the large crowd it was still okay for getting a table quickly. The gardens are always beautiful and this time it was the dhalias that took centre stage magnificent as always the grounds and facilities really clean. Thank you to all who made our visit so memorable we will be back”
