Cardigan Castle

A visit to Cardigan Castle isn’t your typical fortress experience – there’s eras for all ages.

Come and enjoy the splendour of the Georgian mansion, beautiful gardens and award-winning story-telling interpretation where you can unlock the story of the Castle, the people who lived here, and find out how it became the birthplace of Wales’ biggest cultural festival, the Eisteddfod. Explore the medieval walls and Castle remains.

Marvel at glorious Regency grounds, beautifully kept gardens and admire river views from the terrace at Restaurant, Cegin 1176 .

Take a stroll back in time along the winding pathways of the stunning Regency style gardens. Bursting with colourful blooms and rare plant species, they are just waiting to be admired. From a vegetable garden, to towering trees, colourful flower beds and hidden nature trail for children, there is plenty to savour. Set in two acres of grounds overlooking the River Teifi, the Grade II listed gardens are home to more than 130 types of plants as well as a beautiful Eisteddfod Chair and the new sculpture of the Lord Rhys.
