Setting up ready for the #ValeShow tomorrow. Come and say hello… you can’t miss us we’re in this fabulous tipi by @celtictipico next to the @valefarmersmarket Food Court #ValeShow2022

St Illtud established a Church and place of learning in #LlantwitMajor in 500AD. The imposing 11th century Church now standing on this site has been called the Westminster of Wales. At the western end stands the Galilee Chapel which houses an exhibition of Celtic crosses and carved stones - the finest collection outside of the National Museum of Wales. A most peaceful and serene place to visit as you discover the #GlamorganHeritageCoast

Cosmeston Country Park has had a makeover, we hope you enjoy it. Including, new Curiosity Trail, exciting natural play equipment, new benches and much more 🦆🦋 Look out for the Curiosity Trail for kids, the totem listening point and match-finder game hidden in the woods.... (Did you know, Pipistrelle Bats 🦇 are so small they could fit inside a matchbox. One bat can eat 3,000 tiny insects in just one night. That’s the equivalent of a small child eating 60 roast dinners a day!!) 😳 To learn about this and much more, grab the tribe and head on down to Cosmeston Country Park this summer! 🌞 #visitthevale #visitwales #cosmestonlakes #cosmestoncountrypark #visitsouthwales #southwales #summerholidays
