Newton House, Dinefwr Park and Castle are National Trust so free for members. Visitors can become members when they visit should they wish. Please be aware the car park in the grounds is National Trust so again only free to members. Newton House is of historical interest and there are the expected NT facilities; cafe, shop, toilets. There are large grounds including a Deer Park to explore with Dinefwr Castle boasting glorious views towards Carmarthen, Towy Valley and the Black Mountains.

Dinefwr Castle, a 20 minute drive, dates from the 9th century and is considered one of the most important castles in Wales. The castle is in the grounds of Dinefwr Park, also home to Newton House. The Park is a beautiful place for an afternoon stroll. Watch out for the many deer. There are events held within the park from March to November.

Great walk from the cottage, lovely scenery. Visit the castle, grab a coffee or Dinefwr house. It’s our favourite walk.

A magical land of power and influence for more than 2,000 years. Dinefwr is an iconic place in the history of Wales. Two forts are evidence of a dominant Roman presence. The powerful Lord Rhys held court at Dinefwr and influenced decisions in Wales. Standing proudly at the heart of the estate is Newton House, a family home for over three hundred years to the descendants of Lord Rhys, the powerful Prince of the Welsh Kingdom of the Deheubarth. The visionaries, George and Cecil Rice designed the superb 18th-century landscape, which is protected as a parkland National Nature Reserve, from flower-rich meadows to dense ancient woodland, it’s all here for you to discover. “If you take a handful of the soil of Dinefwr and squeeze it in your hand, the juice that will flow from your hands is the essence of Wales” Wynford Vaughan Thomas
