Another great castle to visit perched up on a hill in Llanstephan. A great little village too, with a lovely beach to explore and great little shop and cafe to buy a gift or refreshments. The fish and chip van in the car park serves the best fish and chips by far..worth a visit just for them! Why not catch the ferry in Ferryside and travel across the estuary.
