Built by Edward I in 1289, it is smaller than Beaumaris or Caernarfon castles, but it has a lot of charm.

Tours are 1 hour long and cost £1.
It is probably the best in Wales, with wonderful flowers and plants, including the beautiful Laburnum Arch of golden blooms that bloom in late May, as well as the Pin Mill.
