Powis castle is somewhere we have been several times and actually has become quite a special place to us after we took Daisy there in her first week of life and then did the same with Alex.
You'll have seen me talk about this place a few times if you've followed my blog a while so I thought it only right that I would give it its own post!
Powis Castle is a beautiful medieval castle, and grand country mansion in Powys, Wales. It's a National Trust property and is known for its terraced gardens with views out to the local surrounding hills.
You'll see from the photos that it is a beautiful building and the grounds are stunning, we actually have never ventured in to the venue before as we've just made the most of the gardens in the good weather that we've been lucky to catch!
The grounds are fairly large and have various levels and little areas to explore and enjoy. The only downfall for us personally is all of the steps you have to navigate with the pushchair, I'm not sure I would manage going on my own with the babies! But of course the steps are part of the character and architecture so I wouldn't wish them to change or anything drastic like that, it's just something to bear in mind when visiting.
They do have a little route that includes no steps but it is a steep bank and you actually miss half of the terraces and the views you get from there.
Daisy loves it here and often visits with her grandparents and picnics in the garden. She even has her own little friend here, Alan the peacock!
