Visited on a sunny Wednesday morning. Very warm welcome from the lady in the shop who was also very knowledgeable about the slate works. I asked about accessibility as two members of our party have mobility problems but were assured that the site was mainly...More

Little gem

Very interesting place to visit. Lots of slate designs for sale in and outside the shop. Lovely unusual pieces. Free to go around there but I highly recommend going around the slate works itself. £5.50 a person. You get an audio device for yourself that...More

Interesting......but

Took a self guided tour round the works. Interesting and informative. Very enjoyable. However, the site is a mess. I understand the works are still used but leaking roofs, half cleaned equipment etc etc....it's really not a good advert and the works do appear unsafe....More

Not an Attraction!

Disappointed as the leaflet makes this look like a full working slate mine attraction - which it is not! This is a shop, albeit with nice line of slate souvenirs. I will direct you to other peoples reviews on the self-directed “tour” which is given...More
