We went on the Easter trial. The staff were really welcoming and made us feel at home. The scenery is beautiful and walking along the paths was very interesting seeing different animal habitats. There were also sculptures of the animals as we meandered through. Eventually we came across a herd of deer enjoying the sunshine and tranquility. A lovely way to spend two or three hours.

A stunning place to visit. There are beautiful views all around. We were luckily enough to see one dear, as the weather was very Changeable. The Castle was also stunning. A must visit. Just Stunning. There are public toilets, and the house was closed due to Covid, but serving hot drinks and snacks. Loved it.

House not open at the moment but a great area for walking even if we did manage a wrong turn and got "trapped" in the deer park! Cafe offering limited menu serving outside but plenty of seats. No need to book ahead. Great day out. Castle is well worth the visit.

Good choice of interesting walks of different length and difficulty. There is a cafe serving a reasonable selection of snacks & drinks to be consumed outside at well distanced tables. Entry is free for National Trust members,5 per car otherwise. Not certain if the house is open at present The Castle is the main attraction from which there are fantastic views. In the winter they feed the deer close to the main house and you may see up to 50 does (hinds) ,stags (buck) and calves (fawn)feeding together. We experienced this last year at around November time at midday.

This is the best National Trust parkland in West Wales. Wooded deer park, rolling fields, lake, boardwalk, hills and stunning views along the valley with it's meandering river and oxbow lakes. Parking does not need to be booked, toilets and cafe open. Most of the walking is grass and gravel and uneven. Stout footwear is recommended. Plenty to see including deer (often hiding during the day), White Park horned cattle, sheep and damsel and dragon flies etc. There are no crowds and plenty of room to get away from everybody and enjoy a relaxing picnic.

We really lucked out with the weather but perhaps 27 / 28 was a tadge on the warm side for this slightly overweight/unfit 50 year old. But if I can make it round the park, so can you. You won't be disappointed either. The park has plenty to offer of all ages. The walk to the castle is steep in places, but plenty of seats are provided along the way to allow you to "admire the view". The castle is more than a bunch of ruins. It has been tastefully restored in places to allow access to the ramparts and some of the towers. After the castle, you can take a walk down to the old pump house next to the bottom lake from which you can cross into the deer park. Fallow deer are notoriously shy but again we were lucky in that a large herd of juvenile stags were sat in the middle of the park in clear view. Unfortunately due to COVID-19 restrictions, the house was closed but even walking round the outside gives an idea of how grand it must be. Talking of COVID-19, social distancing was practiced by most visitors. The toilets were open and suitable cleaning materials were provided. They appeared to be regularly cleaned and checked despite the park being busy. With the right picnic and weather, you could quite happily spend the whole day in the park. You could visit the park on multiple occasions and still not see everything it has to offer. Well worth the 5 parking fee (free for National Trust members).
