Absolutely beautiful and amazing to learn about our own industrial revolution!! Would Absolutely recommend! Amazing place and staff!! Thank you 👍

Ironworks. We loved it. This and big pit was one of the best days of our holiday.. we will be back next year.

Great place to learn how the ironworkers lived 200 years ago. The exhibition sites are very informative, the view from the top of the balance tower is breathtaking. Even though it was raining when we visited Blaenavon I honestly enjoyed the tour.

Love day out with the boyfriend, really enjoyed our day out. Never been before but can say it was really worth it. Very friendly staff in the gift shop/entrance. Very informative and interesting to learn all about the steal works and how people lived. Great parking and toilets available. Would highly recommend to any family or people interested in local history. Also saw some picnic benches which would be lovely to use in the summer months. 10 out of 10 for me !!

Excellent piece of Welsh industrial history exhibition. Remains of iron smelting kilns and its collateral buildings including workers' houses from early 19th century. It is very educational, there are few audio posts all around the site. I really enjoyed my visit. Friendly staff too.

Nice place if you just want a small 30 min walk and good pictures of the place. Dont forget to listen to 4 pods there with your self guided tour. Overall it was ok.

Very nice museum and experience to know a iron treatment place.

A very interesting look at one of the biggest parts of Welsh history. There are plenty of things to see and great interaction. Nestled in the rolling hills, the view from the top is stunning.

Went on a break en route to Cardiff. Short detour. Drive is beautiful. Takes us to mountain summit. Take a break if you have time. Parking is across the road. Friendly staff. Had a special Halloween event when we went. Cadw members have discounted entry. Mostly outdoor. Not recommended if weather is bad

Loads of exhibits and history to see and view, workers cottages set out as they would have been when ironworks running. Also cottages set up from 1930's, '40's etc. Difficult to access with wheelchair as slope up to cottages is pretty steep, I wouldn't attempt it in inclement weather.

what a wonderful visit we had today, we absolutely loved it , the guide was fantastic ,very knowledgeable and informative in fact we believe he made the visit extra special and was very attentive when we asked questions and answered without hesitation, he truly is an asset to the establishment such an amazing guy !! The whole experience was one of enjoyment pleasure and a lot of thinking of those days gone by and the work and lifestyle they must of endured in fact the whole day and thoughts are still running through our minds long after we have left so I will say it certainly had a massive impact on us today and made us realise how lucky we are to live in this world today rather in those days . An amazing experience and a must see for anyone visiting the area absolutely well worth the visit! Thank you all for making it special today .

Thoroughly interesting historical location to visit. Absolutely friendly welcome at ticket office and highly informative knowledgeable guide onsite. Lots to see and read. The little houses through time were fantastic too. Information posts in either Welsh or English. Well worth a visit

This historical place has got a real heritage value with fine sttling within nature. The small AV presentation was really nice and takes you back to the old times. One should not miss this place if you are in South Wales.

One of a few ironworks showing the history of the industrial revolution. As with all sites this has very significant history and gives each person a chance to delve and expand their own past, to understand better our life changes and specifically to learn without pressure. A pleasure to wander and see how life used to be for these wonderful people.

Great historical museum dedicated to the history of Blaenavon. I would suggest they add information in the beginning about the process of iron making since I had to look it up afterwards. Informational signs are placed around the property but don't give a full picture of what happened here. Great info about daily life and the structures still in place, however. The World Heritage center also has informative displays.

We loved visiting here, its a great experience. A lot to learn about the history and how it all worked. The old workers cottages are really good to get to see how the people lived in different times. Great view from the viewing area at the top, its very high up so not for people scared of heights. Theres free parking across the road.

Very informative experience. I learned a lot about iron furnaces and industry in Wales. If you are interested in these topics, budget 1-2 hours (but likely not more, it's not a massive site) for visiting. The staff at the ticket office/gift shop are incredibly kind and helpful, just so friendly.

Great interactive start to site and plenty of the old iron works still standing. Walk to the top was great too. There are a number of original houses standing and made up for the different year periods fully explorable no ropes to keep you away excellent.

We called in today nearly missing this absolute gem of a place . Those working there could not make you welcome enough and we were lucky to catch a guide waiting for a group to arrive. What a delight to have his entertaining and informative talk as a bonus. We loved pottering through the houses and generally wandering about. We were a good couple of hours and then went down the road to the Heritage centre for more history and the good value cafe. What brilliant value for money our £6 was. Make an effort to call in here and be witness to the start of iron smelting in Wales.

Fascinating look at the birth of industrial ironworking. Nice site but limited interactions. Kids may get bored!

Really interesting to walk round and learn times gone by and our industrial history. Great audio at the start brings the story to life.

A really good place to both see and learn how raw iron is cast etc. Also to see how people lived in the 1780's. A good display and very worth a visit.
