Oakwood, Penscynor, Coney Beach: The theme parks of every Welsh childhood that you never wanted to leave

Growing up in South Wales during the '80s and '90s more than likely meant you would either visit the following places during the summer holidays, as part of a school trip or maybe even as part of a weekend day trip.

As a child I loved going to Porthcawl and even better than that was a day trip to Penscynor Wildlife Park in Neath.

And that's not forgetting the amazing rides in Oakwood or the feel of catching the latest pop and rockstars at a Radio 1 roadshow in Barry Island or Porthcawl.
