Visit Kidwelly Castle 

There is a small car park near the entrance to the castle laid to tarmac with 11 spaces and one accessible space: Google maps view

There is also a large free parking area a short walk/push from the monument.

The car park is adjacent to the visitor centre and is flat with a dropped kerb to a paved area. There is a single step into the visitor centre which had a manually operate single door.

Leaving the visitor centre, a wide concrete path with a nonslip surface leads on to a wooden slatted bridge. The path has a slight incline.

There is wheelchair and buggy access in the visitor centre and the ground floor of the monument.

Toilets are located on the lower level by the visitor centre, with an accessible cubical and baby changing facilities.

Dogs must be kept on leads at all times and non-assistance dogs must remain on the ground floor only.

The grounds are laid to grass with one short flat even pathway leading to different areas within the ground floor of the castle.

The castle can be enjoyed at ground level, however much of the site is accessed via steep, narrow staircases, some of which are uneven, including the wall walks.
