  • Caernarfon Castle
    The spectacular Caernarfon Castle is possibly the most famous of Wales's castles. Its sheer scale and commanding presence easily set it apart from the rest. Standing at the mouth of the Seiont river, the fortress dominates the walled town founded by Edward I.
  • Conwy Castle
    Conwy castle is a dark stoned fortress which has the rare ability to evoke an authentic medieval atmosphere. The castle was constructed by the English monarch Edward I, between 1283 and 1289, as one of the key fortresses in his 'iron ring' of castles to contain the Welsh.
  • Beaumaris Castle
    Beaumaris, begun in 1295, was the last and largest of the castles to be built by King Edward I in Wales. Raised on an entirely new site, it is possibly the most sophisticated example of medieval military architecture in Britain. Before the age of cannon, the attacker would surely have been faced with an impregnable fortress. Yet, ironically, the work of construction was never fully completed, and the castle saw little action apart from the Civil War in the 17th century.
  • Discover Dolbadarn Castle
    Dolbadarn Castle stands on its rocky hillock some 80 feet above Llyn Padarn. Undoubtedly many tourists know about the masterful castle in Caernarfon, and may be so intent on reaching that fortress that they overlook the smaller stronghold at Dolbadarn. Yet, it is a marvelous relic, hallmarked by a proud tower built by the Welsh princes of Gwynedd, and, as such, is every bit as significant as the Edwardian castles, now listed as World Heritage Sites.
  • The Dunoon Hotel
    The Dunoon Hotel is an attractive building in a beautifully preserved Victorian seaside town, a 50-bedroom hotel of antiques and oak panels, of old world elegance and formality, of warmth and intimacy. The air is relaxed and comfortable and the service personal and attentive.
