Criccieth, Wales LL52 0DP
Cilgerran is a spectacular coastal castle built – and destroyed – by powerful Welsh princes Criccieth is truly a castle to capture the imagination. Crowning its own rocky headland between two beaches it commands astonishing views over the town and across the wide sweep of Cardigan Bay. No wonder Turner felt moved to paint it. By then it was a picturesque ruin – destroyed by one of Wales’s most powerful medieval princes, Owain Glyndŵr. The displayed opening times are our general pattern.
