Fabulous place! Stopped here as an alternative to services on a long journey and what a treat it was! Easy to park and a takeaway cafe, play area and toilets near the car park which was perfect! Short walk up a steep hill to the castle or there is a minibus! The castle didn't open til twelve so we made the most of the fabulous walk as mapped out on the leaflet. The grounds and gardens are stunning. The topiary is fantastic. It made me think of Alice in Wonderland. There is a stunning view at the edge of the gardens. The castle itself has a fascinating history and the volunteers as ever were informative and friendly! The cafe is in the courtyard and the tables outside give you a lovely panorama of the castle. There are more toilets here too. Throughly recommended a visit here.
The car park is a good size and has disabled spaces. There is a play area next to it to let the children run off some energy. You walk through the kitchen garden and a beautiful picnic area to the castle. The castle is up a steep hill but there is a shuttle bus if you cannot walk it. The castle is stunning with such incredible artifacts and paintings. The rooms are so beautifully decorated and were being restored as we walked through. Then you can walk through the garden which are also lovely. Well maintained with all sorts of flowers in them. Then at the bottom stunning views across the Cheshire planes. There is a national trust cafe which serves the usual tea room food and drink. All the staff are friendly and helpful. National Trust members have free entry. Well worth a visit. Such a wonderful place to spend the day exploring.
We had a very pleasant afternoon exploring the castle and its grounds. The route from the car park is quite a steep Hill. There is a shuttle bus but we braved it and managed to walk up the hill. There is seating halfway up if you need it. The castle itself is well maintained and very interesting. There are lots of artefacts on show. We were able to explore in our own time and were not hurried by the wardens on duty. There is a dungeon and a tower. We went on to explore part of the garden and that was attractive. There are lovely views of the surrounding area. We walked back down the hill and had an ice cream at the kiosk near the entrance. There is a second-hand bookshop, a cafe and plenty of car parking. As National Trust members we were able to enter free but for adults who are not members it's £15.40. We enjoyed our visit and had a very pleasant afternoon.
Great place to visit when in North Wales. The castle is great to wander around inside and has wonderful gardens to walk through. There is ample parking with a short inclined walk up to castle. A shuttle bus for the less able. A really nice cafe at reasonable prices.
Very nice National Trust property in North Wales. Plenty of car parking but be aware that although the Castle is only a short distance away it is up a fairly steep drive. There is a shuttle bus from the car park if you feel the climb would be a problem. There is a coffee shop and gift shop near the car park and a cafe inside the castle. Although the castle has been changed over the the years it doesn't take much imagination to realise what an imposing presence it must have had over the surrounding countryside. Excellent knowledgeable room guides.
Beautiful and spacious gardens which we really enjoyed walking around. The high position gives amazing views. We took the shuttle bus up and down the hill which conserved our energy for the walk; the driver was very pleasant and fun, we were the only passengers Despite there being a lot of cars in the ample car park we mostly felt as though we were the only people in the gardens; a wonderful feeling. There were plenty of picnic spaces to choose from. We later had a cup of tea from the small shop in the courtyard. The beautiful weather enhanced our visit.
Lovely visit to the gardens only today. Castle set up high with a steep walk up to castle and gardens. There is a shuttle bus provided free for those unable to walk up The driver was excellent friendly and helpful. The cafe is very nice with lots of seating and accessible for those in wheelchairs. Most enjoyable visit.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Brilliant day out at chirk castle. We'll worth a visit, as the pictures show you. Added bonus they have a seaway experience you can book. At 60 I thought why not and for an hour I explored the grounds of the castle . Was a lot of fun
Visited here quite a few times only for the stunning walks with the very best views and gorgeous gardens and woodlands etc. This is the first time we have been in the castle and wow it is definitely a must visit on everyone's bucket list. Lovely cafe within the castle also near the entry to the estate.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Fantastic day out. There's a nice walk around very flowery gardens, some history and art in the castle building, a cafe that served me a nice Moroccan focaccia, and a nice children's play area with outdoor toys by hawk house. It does cost a bit to get in, but this is negated if you have a national trust pass. While done parts of the castle building aren't easy accessible, they do provide a bus between the entrance on low and the castle on high ground.
