The view was breathtaking. We spent a lot of time for walking around. Some places have steep steps so be cautious for elders or toddlers.nThere is also an area for children to play. My daughter had a joyful time in the playground and enjoyed Cardiff Castle very much.
I recently visited Cardiff Castle and had a wonderful experience, deserving of a solid 4-star review. The castle is a remarkable journey through history, right in the heart of the city. From the ancient Roman walls to the beautifully restored Victorian Gothic interiors, there’s something for everyone who appreciates history. The informative exhibits and guided tours provide a fascinating insight into the castle’s past, making it a great destination for history buffs.nnWhat stood out to me, however, was how wheelchair-friendly the site is. Accessibility can often be an issue at historical sites, but Cardiff Castle has gone the extra mile to ensure that everyone can enjoy its grandeur. Many of the key areas are easily accessible by ramps or lifts, and the staff were incredibly helpful, making sure visitors with mobility needs were well taken care of. There is even an accessible route that allows you to explore the stunning grounds and castle keep without missing out.nnAlthough some areas, like the higher towers, are understandably not fully accessible due to the nature of the historic structure, the castle still offers plenty to see and enjoy for those with mobility concerns. A visit to Cardiff Castle is an unforgettable experience, balancing rich historical significance with thoughtful modern inclusivity. Highly recommended for anyone, especially those looking for a wheelchair-friendly day out!
Incredible! Lots to see. There for many hours. Well worth paying for the tour! Even my 10yr old loved it! Learnt loads!nGood coffee too!nGreat exhibits!
Very interesting place, such great history. Impressive views from the castle keep which has some steep stairs up to the top. Good to go into the areas used in the war and the main house has some stunning rooms.nClose to the principality stadium with some good bars and restaurants across the road.
