👍👍 Great place to spend a few moments taking in you surroundings. This castle is part of the English heritage and free to visit. Surrounded by a moat full of fish. The castle has some interesting history and perfect for visitors of all ages. Free parking 5 mins walk and local cafe very close by.

👍👍 As far as castles go, Usk Castle is not overly impressive but it is far more accessible than many others you can visit. It is in private ownership but most areas are open to the public with the private gardens being open a few times a year too. What we liked about this place over other places visit...

Early 12th-century castle with a working youth hostel in its gatehouse & courtyard with free access.

Hilltop ruins of a millennia-old fortress with ties to the legend of King Arthur, popular for walks.

Looking like a Medieval castle, this folly was built much later & is now illuminated at night.

👍 The castle really is just a ruin, not much left of it, nice bit of history though, apparently it is said that king Henry V was born here. There's also a lovely memorial garden to the left of it. Worth a look if you're in the area as it has a few old buildings around the area and a lovely little town...

😠 I love Bristol but got to say this is not a nice part of it give it a miss
