Manorbier Castle

About 6 miles from Tenby lies Manorbier Castle, the birthplace of the 12th Century scholar Gerald of Wales who described Manorbier as ‘the most delectable spot in Wales’.

The remains of this picturesque seaside castle date to a period later than Gerald, and were extensively restored in the 19th Century, but the view is timeless and excellent looking out to the tiny secluded cove of Manobier beach.

A slightly tacky waxwork exhibition aims to transport you back in time with the help of atmospheric music, but the castle gardens are delightful and the castle retains its medieval charm.
