Lovely ruins of a castle built on an even older earthworks nestled into the middle of the picturesque Pembrokeshire countryside. Not far from the stunning preseli hills and not far from Haverfordwest. Well worth checking out 👍

Free parking is available not too far from the castle itself, there's a metal swing gate to the entrance of the field and a board which explains the history of the castle. It's a beautiful quiet place, there were only two other people visiting when I was there. Steps lead up to the castle mound and once on top you can enter the ruins. It's a really nice example of a motte and Bailey castle as you don't see many of these. The grounds are nice to walk in and are surrounded by lush greenery and big trees to offer shade in the hotter months. Unfortunately this place is not wheelchair friendly due to the narrow gated entrance.

Very fine example of a Motte and Bailey castle, a little hidden away from the road. Parking straightforward close to the nearby church, but then it was a muddy field to cross to get to the steps up to the castle. No cattle on the day we visited. Charming ruin, very pleased we visited.

Ruins are great for a brief look. Notice board informative and steps good to climb up. We parked by the church which had a little space. However, we had our dog with us and the field to get to the castle was full of bullocks with no warning or signs.. so we didn’t truly enjoy our experience as they were so interested in us!

The best example of a motte and bailey castle that we've seen in Wales. There's not a ton left to see, but after visiting several other ruins of motte and bailey castles, this was the most complete and most illustrative of what those types of constructions looked like. Definitely worth a visit!
