ランベイノーの洞窟・トップ6

Although there is not much left of the castle, this is an atmospheric place that is well worth the detour from the trail. It also looks like many of the stones from the castle were borrowed to build the nearby farm!

Not much remains of what was once the highest castle in England and Wales, but it is still an atmospheric place with great views.

City of old white people. The whole thing has little to do with a romantic book village, antique shops and cafes characterize the townscape together with congested streets

Hay-on-Wye is an attractive, traditional and vibrant small town set in a delightful location on the Wales-England border. It has narrow sloping streets, a notable 13th-century castle and a world reputation for books! With over 20 bookshops for a population of just 2,000, Hay-on-Wye is often described as the ‘town of books’. The town makes a fine stopping point on any long-distance walk or hike. Offa’s Dyke Path and the Wye Valley Walk pass through Hay-on-Wye, and the town is overlooked by the glorious Black Mountains to the south and by the green rolling hills of Powys to the north. As it is easy to spend time browsing and purchasing items from the Hay-on-Wye bookshops, please remember that if you are on a long-distance hike you may have to carry the books that you buy!

Highest castle in England and Wales, tbh not really much of a ruin to see sadly. Interesting to visit though.

The highest castle in England and Wales, actually missed this initially until I looked at my GPS and realised it was the castle.

Grosmont is a one of the "Three Castles of Gwent" a trio of strongholds (also including Skenfrith and White Castle). The original earth-and-timber stronghold was built on a "gros mont" (French for ‘big hill’) and later replaced in stone. Access is free, year round.

Yes that’s right, it’s a castle…
