Visited here as our castle tour of the UK. Its an English Heritage site so a bit pricey if not a member. It is well worth the visit though as this rates among the top 10 castles I have visited so far. It is home to alot of swifts which is really nice to see. Lovely staff at the entrance and awesome views at the top. Its quite a large castle with plenty to see. There is a little walk to get to it but not excessively so.

This is a great Castle owned by English heritage. There is lots to see including a big tower to climb and a dungeon. There is a cafe on site offering delicious refreshments and a well stocked gift shop. The mead is particularly good. Definitely worth a visit. We are English heritage members and as it was members week, we had a family member each go in for free. We also had 20% discount in the shop and cafe. There was no wait to go in which was surprising as it was half term. Our dog was also welcome in the Castle and he had doggy ice cream from the cafe.

A very interesting ruined castle ; Goodrich castle is for all ages; lovely surroundings. Bridge coming up to the castle is spectacular. We booked online showed our QR code on arrival ; you go in the gift shop to pay . Can use headsets provided for self guided tour. Carpark not expensive. Few minutes walk the gift shop and cafe ; also toilets. Seating outside .small seating inside . Was a lovely few hours also can walk round the castle grounds perfect day out fully enjoyed.

Our stop in Wales trip. It wasn't just few stones in middle of nothing. What's I like there was we could enter almost everywhere, up the tower through the very narrow stairs where is very nice view around, into lower part of castle, even small place in chapel some short stairs, then outside and around castle. It was worth it.

We visited Goodrich Castle today and had such a lovely time exploring this beautiful historic gem. Set high above the River Wye, the views alone are worth the visit — absolutely stunning in every direction. The castle itself is wonderfully preserved, and it’s easy to imagine what life must have been like within those impressive stone walls. We really enjoyed listening to the audio guide as we walked around. It brought the castle’s history to life with fascinating stories and details that we would have otherwise missed. It made wandering through the towers, courtyard and ramparts even more special. It was also great to be able to bring our dog along. He loved sniffing around the ancient ruins and exploring just as much as we did! The whole site felt welcoming, spacious and relaxed — perfect for a leisurely wander at your own pace.
