We received a very warm welcome with a cup of tea. The house and bedroom were beautifully decorated and furnished. The breakfast was the best we had on our trip, the product of an artistic chef. We had an evening walk along the nearby canal at a local pub.

A fascinating place if you are interested in industrial heritage. Make sure you visit the Iron Works. Book an underground tour at Big Pit. Travel on the steam railway. Walk around the former slag heaps – now a nature reserve.
Don’t miss out on a posh dinner at the Lion hotel. Stop off at the Whistle Inn for a tasty burger and lashings of chips.
Make time for the town centre Museum as well.
There’s 22KW EV charging in the town centre not far from the hotel.

Visited in February so village very quiet.
Visited in February so village very quiet. To be honest we spent little time there because there were walks we wanted to do and places we wanted to see outside the village. We used a pizza/kebab takeaway which delivered one evening, and the food was great. There are many historical things in the village and area but we did not really have time for all we wanted to do and look into these as well.

It is a heritage town with two two must see sites, the Big Pit and the Ironworks. They have been restored with really fascinating displays and experiences. At the Big Pit you actually go down 300feet to see what working down a mine was like. The ironworks is more of an historical site. Here I would recommend the sound and light show.
The town although needing restoration has some excellent eating places such as The Lion and The Butterfly Bar.

The town itself is a small ex-mining town, that offers plenty of history in terms of mining, iron and steel works.
It offers little in terms of shops, restaurants etc, but tourists mainly go their to visit the Big Pit. This is a really interesting Coal Mine and Museum and offers the chance to go 300 feet underground into the mine. Really impressed - so much more than expected and highly recommend it.
There is also a brewery next door, so you can stock up after your visit !!

Plenty of interesting things to see.
Plenty of interesting things to see. The Rhymney Brewery tour is good but note that it opens at 11.30 a.m. Fill up your time by visiting Big Pit just a little further down the road. This is the experience of a life-time.
The Ironworks doesn't open on a Wednesday if you fancy a visit there.
The heritage Centre is also well worth a visit.

We found it a most interesting area to visit.
We found it a most interesting area to visit. We had a great day at the Big Pit coal mining museum. Also the ironworks museum was good especially the old workers cottages furnished as they would have been at various times in history. Other local museums worth a visit. One of them located in what had previously been an old school. There was also a good café with a courtyard overlooking the valley. Our hotel served excellent food, but most days we didn't need to buy much food as we were so full after an excellent breakfast! There was a chip shop down the road and a café which looked inviting but had closed early so we were unable to try it out!
