エネルグリンの洞窟・トップ7

Built in 1280, this castle has a fascinating life story. It is the second largest castle and grounds in UK, slightly smaller than Windsor castle. The water defenses are now home to plenty of birds and the grounds offer fantastic views of this stunning castle

Such a beautiful place and quite an emotional and spiritual place for me. As Grace mentioned above it has a chapel. That chapel is called Penrhiw chapel, it was built in Drefach Felindre in West Wales. My father lived a very short walk from that chapel, the entire family used to worship in it and my cousin ended up preaching in it (he is alive today at 95+). My dad and his brothers all went away to fight in WW2, they would come back and find solace in 'Penrhiw' for the ones who didn't come back. It was really the spiritual fulcrum for my whole family. I guess I am lucky as every time I go to St Fagan's I can go to Penrhiw and speak to my father once more....

St Fagans Castle & Gardens is situated inside the grounds of St Fagans museum. It is a Grade I listed building and a fantastic example of an Elizabethan manor house. The house is open for the public to explore, and the interior is designed to reflect how it would have looked when the occupants were living in inside. Some very helpful staff will be happy to run you through some of the fascinating history attached to the place.

St Fagans is a museum situated to the west of the city of Cardiff in South Wales that beautifully showcases the history of Welsh life.

It is free to enter the grounds and opening times are 10am-5pm every day.

Built in 1626 by Sir Thomas Morgan, Steward to the Earl of Pembroke, it was one of the first of the 'mock' castles to be built in Wales.  In 2022 Cadw designated the castle gardens and park Grade II on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales.

No access to the castle, blocked off by gates, according to local press landowner wants to knock it down and put houses on it.

Caerphilly Castle has had a £5m investment into conservation and repair of the structure - from late October '22 the scaffold and sheeting that protected the works will be removed. Caerphilly Castle is the biggest castle in Wales, and second biggest in the UK. Wales’s very own Leaning Tower, even wonkier than that of Pisa — courtesy of Civil War gunpowder is probably the castle’s best-loved feature.

Ruperra Castle was built in 1626 by the Steward to the Earl of Pembroke, Sir Thomas Morgan. It's actually a mock castle – a residence with a castle-like appearance rather than a fortress. Now, the castle lies in ruin and is quite something to behold.
