Also available is a self-guided tour, an activity that can be experienced at your own pace. Children can enjoy a quiz as you roam the works, exploring original buildings and viewing the authentic working machinery that produces the Welsh Slate crafts for the shop. If you’re inspired by the craftsmen, you’re invited to create your own slate memento to take home from Snowdonia. Visit the website to book a place on the tour and find out more about the onsite café, farm shop and butchery.
