The UK holiday destination with great family attractions for all types of British weather
For a family-friendly holiday, Wales has it all.
No matter the age – or the weather – there are attractions to suit, from adrenaline-fuelled water parks to museums that will ignite their passion for science. And the best bit? You don’t need to break the bank.
If you’re heading to North Wales, you’ve got the epic natural playpark of Snowdonia to explore, as well as thrilling zip wire rides through quarries, such as Zip World Penrhyn Quarry for a treat.
Or how about taking mini marine biologists to spot sea creatures at the Anglesey Sea Zoo?
Meanwhile, South Wales is home to the capital – you could head to Bute Park for a picnic (tip: grab some traditional Welsh cakes from Bakestones) or see the Norwegian Church where children’s author Roald Dahl was christened (free to visit).
The Cardiff Bay area also has free things to do on a day out, like scooting the Barrage embankment to the skate park and taking a selfie at the Enormous Crocodile bench.
But don’t just take our word for it. We’ve chatted to Wales experts and Sun readers who have taken £9.50 Holidays in Wales for their favourite best family attractions located near our £9.50 Holiday parks.
Here’s what they said…
Fun on the farm
Chantelle Hawkins, Guest Experience Manager at Trecco Bay, recommends Wiggleys Fun Farm for families.
She said: “It’s about 15 minutes away from our park and is a really good day out. They’ve got indoor and outdoor play areas as well as animal paddocks, sit-on tractors and a cafe.”
Open every day except Christmas and Boxing Day, the park is great value, costing from £4 for kids and from £2 for adults.
Big thrills at the Aqua Park
Steph Powell, a parent blogger from South Wales, recommends taking older water babies to let off steam at the Aqua Park in Cardiff Bay (suitable from age eight upwards) with its inflatable slides, towers and “flip stations”.
There are plenty of wallet-friendly activities nearby for a family day out too.
Steph said: “In the summer holidays, Cardiff Bay Beach is free to enter, with rides and attractions for the whole family. We like the Bay and its surroundings, so usually we grab a coffee and stroll across Cardiff Bay Barrage.
“We enjoy the sea air, and taking in the views as we go.
There’s a sandy play park and skate park along the route, too. These days can be as cheap or expensive as you like. We often take a picnic so it only means covering parking, petrol and coffees/ice creams.”
Spark their imaginations
Chantelle Hawkins recommends Techniquest, a science attraction in Cardiff, around half an hour from Trecco Bay.
Kids of all ages can dive into science, technology and engineering via over 100 hands-on exhibits and live shows.
A good all-weather option, highlights include a planetarium, sensory garden and a Mini Metro Play Zone for under-sevens.
Chantelle said: “It’s really fun for all ages and isn’t expensive.” Tickets cost £11.81 for adults and £10 for children; free for under-threes.
Hit the market…and fairground at Tir Prince
Nicola Jones, 36, from Worsley, Manchester, has been visiting Lyons Robin Hood, on the coast of Rhyl in North Wales, since she was a child.
She said: “It’s somewhere where we’ve always gone. We usually go to Tir Prince Market because there’s loads of parking and a fairground next to it, which the kids love.”
The fairground has everything from rollercoasters for thrill seekers, to bumper cars and caterpillar rides for little ones.
The market is also a great place to pick up a bargain, with Pound shops and hundreds of stalls and a car boot area selling things like fresh food and second-hand household goods.
Go wild at the zoo
With stunning panoramic views of Colwyn Bay, the Welsh Mountain Zoo is within easy reach of Lyons Robin Hood, just a half-hour drive along the coast.
Nicola Jones said: “It’s a great option for children. They have some more unusual animals there, like tigers, camels and snow leopards.
“The site is mostly outdoors, so bring warm clothes and prepare for steps and narrow paths.”
Tip: if you’re taking a buggy, pick up a free map at the entrance showing pram-friendly routes. Tickets from £12.98pp for a family of four; free for under-threes.
I thought I had a harmless winter cold – then I woke up from a coma about to lose my legs and couldn’t speak for 8 weeks
WHEN Beth Bugden fell ill over Christmas, she assumed it was just a harmless winter cold.
But she was soon left vomiting blue liquid before being rushed to hospital, where tests revealed she was suffering from flu, pneumonia, Strep A and sepsis, and was on the brink of death.
The then-46-year-old was placed in an induced coma and woke up six weeks later to be told she needed both legs amputated.
“Within 24 hours, I was fighting for my life and have been left with life-changing injuries as a result,” she tells Sun Health.
Beth, from Hartley Wintney, Hampshire, started to feel unwell in mid-December 2022.
She was coughing and spluttering, but put her symptoms down to an “innocuous” common cold.
By Christmas Eve, she and her mum were feeling so wretched they decided to change their plans last minute.
“She wasn’t feeling well enough to travel to my house for the big day so we planned to go to my identical twin sister Liza’s instead,” Beth, a former director of service delivery, says.
“After a day of help from my other sister Andrea, moving everything 30 miles down the road to Newbury, I spent the night at her house on December 24.
“It was a decision which saved my life.”
That night, Beth’s condition worsened rapidly.
And by 6am, when families across the UK were ripping into their presents, she was fighting for her life in hospital.
“I developed an agonising pain in my side, and by Christmas morning I had started vomiting blue liquid,” Beth says.
“Andrea called 111 in the early hours and they sent an ambulance to her house, which blue-lighted me straight to A&E in Basingstoke.”
“It was the beginning of an epic battle that not only nearly cost her her life, but also resulted in her having multiple life-changing surgeries,” Andrea adds.
“Christmas celebrations certainly didn’t happen for our family as they did for the majority of others.”
At the hospital, Beth was diagnosed with flu and pneumonia and transferred to the resuscitation area.
“I hadn’t passed any urine for 24 hours by this point, and I had what I now know was suspected kidney failure,” she says.
“Doctors advised Andrea that things were looking a great deal more serious than they first suspected.
“By Boxing Day, the decision was taken to put me into a medically induced coma.
“All of my vital organs had failed, I wasn’t responding to life support and my family were told to prepare for the worst.”
If this can happen to me, it really can happen to anyone. It really is that scary
Beth Bugden
Beth was moved to St Thomas’ Hospital in London, where she was put on an ECMO machine – a type of life support that takes over the heart and lung functions of a patient when they are too sick or weak to work on their own.
It was then that doctors realised that as well as flu and pneumonia, she had Strep A and had developed sepsis.
Strep A is a common type of bacteria that can cause flu-like symptoms. Sepsis is a life-threatening reaction to an infection.
Beth was in a coma for six weeks.
When she woke up, she discovered she was likely to lose her legs – and maybe her fingers too.
“I’d missed Christmas and New Year, and when I regained consciousness it was such a lot to take in,” Beth says.
“I was told that my legs, and possibly my hands, might need to be amputated.”
She then couldn’t speak for two months. But once she regained her strength, she couldn’t wait to tell her family how much they meant to her.
“My first words upon seeing Liza and my stepdaughter Catty were, ‘Yay! Hello, I love you’.
“My family and friends were traumatised. They had been by my bedside the whole time, willing me to pull through.
“Andrea had kept a diary of those six weeks, which was later really helpful for me to process what I’d missed.”
In February, Beth had both legs amputated below the knee and an operation to repair the damage to her right lung.
Two months later, she had her thumb and most of her fingers removed on her right hand, as well as all of the fingertips on her left.
She then started her long road to recovery, which, according to Andrea, happened at “a snail’s pace”.
What are the symptoms of sepsis?
SEPSIS is a life-threatening reaction to an infection that happens when your immune system overreacts and starts to damage your body's own tissues and organs.
Symptoms of sepsis in an adult include:
- Acting confused, slurred speech or not making sense
- Blue, grey, pale or blotchy skin, lips or tongue – on brown or black skin, this may be easier to see on the palms of the hands or soles of the feet
- A rash that does not fade when you roll a glass over it, the same as meningitis
- Difficulty breathing, breathlessness or breathing very fast
Symptoms in a child include:
- Blue, grey, pale or blotchy skin, lips or tongue – on brown or black skin, this may be easier to see on the palms of the hands or soles of the feet
- A rash that does not fade when you roll a glass over it, the same as meningitis
- Difficulty breathing (you may notice grunting noises or their stomach sucking under their ribcage), breathlessness or breathing very fast
- A weak, high-pitched cry that’s not like their normal cry
- Not responding like they normally do, or not interested in feeding or normal activities
- Being sleepier than normal or having difficulty waking
They may not have all these symptoms.
If you think you or someone else has symptoms of sepsis, call 999 or go to A&E.

“My kidneys completely rejuvenated, and fantastic physiotherapists and a punishing 16-hour-a-week gym schedule helped me to walk with only one stick outside of the bars just five days after getting my prosthetic legs,” Beth says.
“My five-year-old twin nephews have always referred to my lower limbs as my ‘mini legs’ and now they know that these are hidden inside my bionic legs.
“They keep me smiling. I realise how lucky I am to have such supportive family and friends.
“There were only a few days in my entire time in hospital that I didn’t have at least one visitor and that was so vital for my mental health.”
Andrea adds: “Despite Beth’s continued positivity in a truly awful situation, her mental health took a real knock.”
‘COLOSSALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION’
Beth spent seven months in eight different hospitals and was finally discharged in July 2023.
She now wants to raise awareness of sepsis, which kills around 50,000 people every year in the UK.
“Learning to adapt to living at home again and having lost my job as a result of my employer going into liquidation whilst I was in hospital means that there are a huge number of ongoing challenges to overcome,” the trustee of the charity Sepsis Research FEAT, says.
“My passion for the future is helping to spread awareness of sepsis.
“Neither myself, my friends or my family really knew anything about sepsis.
“That’s why I became a trustee for Sepsis Research FEAT, I want to help raise awareness, and be part of the mechanism that leads to research being conducted.
“If this can happen to me, it really can happen to anyone.
“It really is that scary and is therefore vital that people are aware and can recognise the symptoms so that others don’t end up in the same situation that I have.
“Better still, thanks to the work of Sepsis Research FEAT, funds donated mean that sepsis research projects receive funding, and that there may one day be a cure for this colossally dangerous condition.”
Andrea adds: “If in doubt, remember to ask the question – could it be sepsis?”
A fundraiser has been set up to help support Beth. You can donate here.

Watch the moment Gavin and Stacey actress Laura Aikman’s family found out she was in the finale after keeping it secret
LAURA Aikman has revealed the exact moment her family found out she was in the Gavin and Stacey finale after keeping it a secret.
Actress Laura, 39, reprised her role as Sonia for the last ever episode on Christmas Day.
As she appeared on screen ahead of her planned wedding to Smithy, her family only then learned of her involvement in Gavin and Stacey: The Finale
Taking to social media, Laura videoed her mum and dad’s reactions as she appeared on screen.
Someone can be heard screaming “press pause” while her mum pointed at the TV in shock.
Laura’s mum then said “oh my god, you never told me!” before she replied: “We never told anyone.”
The star also revealed to fans she signed a non disclosure agreement (NDA) as part of her return for the finale.
Last night viewers watched as James Corden’s character Smithy realised he was making a big mistake and left Sonia at the altar for Nessa Jenkins.
In an emotional scene on a cargo ship, Smithy dropped to one knee and told his true love, who had proposed in a 2019 festive cliffhanger: “Five years ago on Christmas Day, you asked me a question and I didn’t answer you.
“And I thought about it every day. And I’m sorry I left you hanging.
“I know it’s been messy and not perfect. But that’s because we’re messy and not perfect. But I love you, Nessa. I always have. Will you marry me?”
In a flash-forward the pair then got hitched before the entire cast celebrated at the wedding after party, closing the last ever episode.
Meanwhile, Ruth Jones – who played the iconic Nessa – revealed how one character didn’t return.
Barry’s own Del Boy, Dick Powell, didn’t make the final cut of the show.
Gavin and Stacey: The Finale wins Christmas Day ratings battle
THE Christmas Day ratings battle was won by Gavin and Stacey: The Finale – with 12.5million viewers and climbing.
Part two of the 2019 BBC special was must-watch telly on Christmas Day.
It spelled the end of Ruth Jones and James Corden‘s series for ever – 17 years after it was first created.
It was a big day for the BBC, with the return of Wallace & Gromit after 14 years bringing in 10m for Vengeance Most Fowl.
And it was a huge Christmas for EastEnders – with an astonishing 8.7m watching Cindy Beale clobbered with a shovel and left for dead.
EastEnders’ huge bounce comes as a result of being aired after Gavin and Stacey.
Just 2.8m tuned in to watch Gail Platt’s goodbye on Coronation Street.
Meanwhile some 5.1m watched The King’s Speech, and 6.9m sat down for the Call The Midwife Christmas Special.
Fans spot what Jordan Pickford did to ‘rattle’ Erling Haaland seconds before Man City man missed penalty
JORDAN PICKFORD and Everton employed the dark arts to help extend Manchester City’s dismal recent run.
The Everton keeper denied Erling Haaland from the spot during City’s 1-1 draw with the Toffees on Boxing Day.
Pickford correctly dived to his right to keep out Haaland’s effort after Savinho had been felled in the box.
Seamus Coleman was booked ahead of the penalty after appearing to mouth something into the Norweigan striker’s ear.
And fans were in hysterics as England No. 1 Pickford did his best to put off Haaland during a lengthy build-up.
The 30-year-old pulled a wild face in Haaland’s direction, before sticking his tongue out at the City striker.
Moments later, he guessed right to deny Haaland a first home league goal since October.
One fan laughed on X: “It’s been 70 years since I’ve been following Everton. Pickford represents us like no one else.”
Another said: “He also winked at him after saving it.”
While a third added: “Don’t blame Haaland for missing, I’d be gobsmacked too.”
FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS
And a fourth joked: “Me looking at the leftover turkey.”
TV cameras caught Pickford looking at his water bottle before the spot-kick.
He appeared to have a cheat sheet written on it, featuring the most likely destination for penalties from all of City’s main stars.
City were booed from the field following the draw, which left them with just one win in 13 games.
Following the game, Guardiola said: “We played really good but we are in the period right now that is what happens, we create, we concede the first time [an Everton shot] arrives. But yeah, we keep going.
“The performance against that team was really good offensively and defensively.
“We shot a lot inside the 18 yard box but unfortunately couldn’t get the result we wanted.”
