Boating Lake — Attraction in Llantarnam

This park is a great facility for all. There is an incredible shortage of such facilities in Cwmbran which is an enormous social problem. We arrived at 09.10 and parking was plentiful, at 11.10 we left and the car park was overflowing. The toilets were clean, some bins around the park were overflowing which created litter. The lake is beautiful and well managed, you can easily walk around it, it's also wheelchair and pushchair friendly. The cafe area is very scruffy, dirty and had weeds all around it, if an operator is allowed the contract they shouldn't abuse it and the whole area needs weed treatment and it needs to be thoroughly deep cleaned. It didn't open on time but the staff are friendly. Definitely...

Such a beautiful man-made beauty spot. Ideal to take children to play etc, just wished some adults and children treated it with respect and put their rubbish in bin, which there is lots available. Lots of beautiful bird life and wildlife, different plant and tree species too. There is a cafe which sells drinks and icecreams etc. Didn't see a toilet but there may be one available as it's a community resource. I gave it four stars because its not greatly maintained there was rubbish everywhere especially by the streams and water ponds but then that's the humans not the place but it detracts from the beauty of it and its not good...

Great little gem hidden away if you're not sure where to go for a few hours. This place boasts a versatile children's park and playground suitable for all ages, a little pond where ducks were flapping away and some children were driving toy boats on the water. A nice walk around, especially on a hot day. A larger lake area where you can also sit on benches at any point as there are so many dotted around. A cafe where you can either sit in or take away, selling ice cream, refreshments, also duck food in a cup for £1. This review only loses a star for the extortionate prices...
