Llawhaden Castle

Access into the castle involves a short incline walk along an uneven path. This is sometimes slippery when wet and contains historic bed rock, which may cause a trip hazard.

Lower parts of the outer grounds can become flooded and with deep water pooling in parts. Attention must be paid when visiting in poor weather conditions.

Most of the site is grassed and the internal areas are predominantly flat.

There is a mix of historic stone and modern steel step infrastructure; these can be slippery when wet, please use handrails where provided.

Guardrails have been installed to prevent access to any areas of the site that we have deemed as dangerous or to prevent falls in specific areas.  

Please do not climb over or through any fixed installation.

As with all ancient monuments there is always a risk of stones being dislodged in bad weather, however, we manage this through extensive monitoring. 

Climbing may result in serious injury. 

There are several wild plants and flowers, although these are great pollinators, they may be poisonous to visitors and animals, we strongly advise you not to touch or allow dogs to eat any vegetation. 

Please watch our health & safety film before visiting Cadw sites.
