Local parking, short walk to the main entrance, huge castle to walk around and filled with interesting items including a museum which is over a few different floors within the castle. Well worth a visit. We did it in a couple of hours but you could easily spend three to four hours in the castle.
Not much left of the castle that was fought over and captured several times, before being partially demolished on the orders of Oliver Cromwell in the 17th century to prevent its use in the Civil War. Originally built in the 1100's on a commanding position overlooking the River Towy below. King Henry VII's father, Edmund Tudor died a prisoner there. Now right next to the town centre with easy access through a surviving gatehouse.
Just a small outline of a castle tucked amongst the town centre. Worth a look if you plan on going to Carmarthen. The town centre is small. Dogs welcome in most shops.
Seems good but DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT follow Google maps directly to the castle, it took the car on a very cramped road which turned out to not to be accessible and the only way out was either an illegal manoeuvre going back on a one way street, or through a very very narrow street. Luckily our car was small enough to fit, but for larger vehicles. Please be careful!
Not a lot to see but enjoyed the walk round
