The Abbey ruins are amazing. If you love history, then you will enjoy walking around. The grounds are well kept edge and informative plaques to read about the history of the place.
You can use English heritage for entry. Lovely ruin of the Abbey. And has been restored in parts. Nice signage.nWe stopped off on the way to Llangollen down the Horseshoe Pass.
It's a rather short visit but well worth it. Beautiful place in a stunning location with great views. The kids had a lot of fun. There is a little souvenir shop as well
It's a beautiful location and the abbey ruin is fascinating, only problem is, it seems to be closed quite often, possibly permanently.
Internet stated it was closed - still called in by to check it out whilst in the area. Upon arrival found out it is not permanently closed and is open to the general public from April to October only. Looked like there was some maintenance work taking place when we called by. The Abbey & the grounds are situated right next door to a holiday caravan park that has its own vending machines close by selling Ice cream, milkshakes, crisps, chocolates etc. Think there is a cafe/bistro in the area too. There is a couple of free parking spaces & a fee to pay to be able to enter the site when it's open to the public, although you can see a lot of the building from the roadside when driving past.
