Manorbier Castle

Pembrokeshire, Wales

Sleeps 12 guests in 5 rooms. Self-catered from £1990 for 3 nights.

Our Experts Say:

Situated within spectacular original castle walls, Manorbier Castle occupies a commanding cliff-top position above a rocky coastline overlooking a seemingly endless Atlantic Sea. The castle has an enviably long family heritage spanning 800 years. The privately-owned castle is approached up a long, sweeping drive that climbs through wild moorland dotted with trees. As you reach the castle, be prepared to step back in time as you cross over the moat along an old wooden bridge, into the inner bailey. See more

Roch Castle

Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, Wales

Sleeps 12 guests in 6 rooms. Self-catered from £3300 for 3 nights.

Our Experts Say:

This restored Norman castle is located just 7.4 miles from Haverfordwest, South Wales. Roch Castle was probably built in this location as one of the outer defences of the unmarked border, which has separated, for centuries, the English and Welsh areas of Pembrokeshire. See more
