#lksawaydays 4a/2020 today we decided to step back in time and enjoy a Welsh castle double header. Car packed, satnav set and the ipod on playing the back catalogue of the Manchester Orchestra (top tunes) Our first of the two planned castles was Carreg Cennen in the village of Trap inside the Brecon Beacons National Park. We arrived as the weather seemed to get murkier, perhaps a little bit of luck kept the rain away, we parked up in the free, quiet but again rather small car park. The site has a cafe and shop, these can be found around from the car park as you enter, all of which sit below the prominent ruins dwelling upon the hill. After paying £5 per adult we hiked up the slope and enjoyed the impressive views of Towy Valley, on a clear day it must be spectacular! The six towered castle built in the time of Lord Rhys in the late 1100's has sat in ruin since 1462, once inside you can move around the skeleton freely, walking across the base or along stairways to see more of the structure. Make sure you head down to the naturally made cave which runs under the castle and travels deep into the hillside. Be cautious, once you start walking along the cave it's pitch black and a little slippery under foot, we used our phone touches but you can hire torches at the pay hut for £1.50. #lksawaydays give Carreg Castle a 👍

"A,warm welcome and very nice place to stay, and a lovely country pub/restaurant "

"Lovely and quite, with good service and really delicious food"

"I was just passing through on business, so did not have much time to check out the area. The Hotel was looking a bit tired & could do with freshening up a little. I was given room 18 which was tiny with the smallest bath/shower combo I have ever seen! The service & food are good here & the staff are really friendly.I could not use the hotel car park as it was full, however you can park nearby on the road overnight from 5.00pm until 9.00am."

Stradey Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really good value. Staff are lovely. Room very clean. Dining experience was good too. Lovely situation on a hill. Excellent parking. "

Delta Hotels by Marriott Swansea

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a great location stayed as we were going to a concert and the venue is about a 2 minute walk away. Parking reasonably priced at £5 per night, could have been free but not a rip off. Restaurant food was really quite good and service excellent staff asked if we were going to the concert and served as promptly as we were. There are some nice flat walks locally which is great for a leg stretch after being in the car. Would recommend."

The Grand Hotel Swansea

10/10 Excellent

"First two nights were excellent. Third night in a new room. Window would not close. Street noise kept me awake all night. Just an old terrible room. I was moved to a newer room which was good. Staff at reception and bar were excellent. Would only return to hotel if I had a room not on the high street side"
