Plus there are delicate pieris and enkianthus, bluebell woods, wildflower meadows, a bog garden and even a dogs' graveyard to explore. The entrance is by the Woodman Pub at the Swansea end of the Mumbles Rd strip."

Best parks in Cardiff to go running in
"Victoria Park in Cardiff can sometimes be used to run around, however, as it has a splash pad it can sometimes get too busy with younger kids. In the winter and colder months, Victoria park can be a beautiful place to run around. Most of the ground is flat, just be careful of the leaves on the ground as they can become slippery."
