Father and daughter in Ruthin Gaol

Denbighshire Heritage Sites are offering dads the chance to experience the attractions for free in celebration of Father’s Day weekend.

This weekend, three of Denbighshire’s treasured heritage locations, Ruthin Gaol, Nantclwyd y Dre and Plas Newydd (Llangollen) are offering dads the chance to experience these unique historic attractions, for free!

With one free entry to each site (with an accompanying paying visitor), the offer presents the perfect chance for families to unlock the unique Victorian prison experience, discover more than 500 years of history under one roof, and take in the home of the Ladies of Llangollen, together.

With self-led audio tours, interactive exhibitions and family activities included in admission at all three attractions, Father’s Day weekend promises to be a fun day out for all.

Councillor Emrys Wynne, Lead Member for Welsh Language, Culture and Heritage said:

“Our heritage sites offer a wonderful experience for all to enjoy and with the wide variety of activities on offer, the attractions are a perfect place for a family day out”.

Booking is not required, but members of the public who would like to arrange a visit can find more details, including opening times and admission prices online at www.denbighshire.gov.uk/heritage
