Carew Castle and Tidal Mill

“A great place to visit for all the family. There are lots of parts still accessible (despite it's ruinous appearance) and if you use the QR code on site to download the guided tour, it's really worth doing. Lots of great info about the history and how the castle looked previously. Included in the ticket is a visit to the tidal mill, full of old equipment and again, interesting for all age groups. There is a lovely flat circular walk to the mill and back to the car park (where it's free to park and plenty of space). The Nest cafe serves cakes, snacks and a variety of warm lunchtime bites. There is limited seating inside but lots of covered outdoor areas in the courtyard.”

“Absolutely fantastic, would highly recommend. QR codes throughout to scan and get a talk through. Most of the castle is accessible, even climbing the tower. Amazing experience with the banquet room & kitchen set up like it should of been back then. Dress up clothes available and there are staff on site to explain the history of it. See the armour & items retrieved from the castle grounds from years ago. Beautiful meadow walk with instructions & challenges to become a Knight. Take a 5min walk to the mill house which was fantastic. Tea room and toilets there, amazing day out that won't be regretted”

“We didnt know what to expect but were pleasantly surprised. It was a nice reception area, shop and cafe. The Castle itself had a lot of spaces still covered by roofs, which made the interpretations so much more understandable. The Tidal Mill was really interesting and again mostly complete. A fascinating selection of the workings still in situ and excellent information. I've never heard of a Tidal Mill let alone seen one before. The whole site had a really nice ambience.”
