We popped in during a weekend of walking and exploring the area. We were very pleased we did as the castle was set in an amazing location with stunning views. There was several walks outlined and we took and hour to walk around the whole area and take in the views from the castle and of the surrounding area.

Probably one of the most spectacular sited Castles in Wales. Magnificent views from the top. Great cave to explore. Lovelly atmospheric mist on the day we visited and very reasonable entry fee. The tea room looked very nice but did not sample. Staff very friendly, so ignore a few narky reviews on this site

I visited Carreg Cennen last Thursday with a group of overseas clients. The journey from Brecon to the castle delivers a wonderful insight into Wales' vast landscape and on our one and a half hour journey we only saw only a few vehicles. We were very lucky with the weather, sunshine for most of the day. As advertised there is... More

Didnt read the sign by the till offering the hire of a torch to aid us down to the dungeon....silly...but we managed. Really good ruins but make sure your phone is fully charged!

Much of the castle still stands and this allows for a great feel of the place as you wander around. GET A TORCH: When you buy a ticket, get a torch for £1.50. Worth all 150 pennies... More

We went for a meal and was told to only allowed eating outside in cold. It was 4pm in the afternoon. We had intention to go into the castle but was put off by the racist treatment by very rude staff who gave us completely different treatment from "the white people". Would recommend any non-white people not to go at... More

Fantastic views from this ruined castle after a steep but fairly easy climb. Nice cafe to warm up with a hot drink and watch the birds at the many feeders hanging right outside the windows.
