Castles of Carmarthenshire and West Wales
"Wales is often called the Land of Castles as it is home to some of Europe's finest surviving examples of medieval castle construction"
Carreg Castle
Carreg Cennen, located north of Swansea, a few miles south-east of Llandeilo on a minor road off the A483. Spell-binding views are waiting to be experienced from the sharp hilltop upon which the castle sits. Indeed, Carreg Cennen dominates its surroundings, and seems out of place in the mountainous farming terrain which it commands.
Dinefwr Castle
One of the nearest carmarthenshire castles to the hotel. It was built at the end of the 12th century as the main residence of the Princes of South Wales. It sits high up on a hill overlooking the River Tywi, with ditches cut from solid rock to form a moat as an extra protection on the less defended sides.
The round tower and much of the walls date from the early 13th century. It was abandoned at the end of the 15th century until the 17th century when it was partially restored for use as a summer house. This is when the structure on top of the tower was added. It was finally left to decay after being badly damaged in the 18th century.
