Carreg Cennen Castle Closure Notice

By j.bell on 14/05/2026

Visitors planning to visit Carreg Cennen Castle over the coming week are advised that the site will be temporarily closed on selected dates in May due to essential works and operational requirements.

The castle site will be closed on:

  • Thursday 14 May
  • Friday 15 May
  • Monday 18 May to Friday 22 May

The site will reopen as usual from Saturday 23 May.

The castle will remain open across the intervening weekend, on Saturday 19 May and Sunday 20 May. However, visitors should note that the Cave in the Castle will remain closed during this period.

Set dramatically above the surrounding countryside on the edge of Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park, Carreg Cennen Castle remains one of the most striking historic sites in South Wales, attracting walkers, photographers and heritage visitors throughout the year.

Visitors are encouraged to check ahead before travelling and to plan accordingly during the temporary closure period.

The team at Carreg Cennen Castle have apologised for any inconvenience caused and look forward to welcoming visitors back from 23 May onwards
