Description
The magnificent Carew Castle has a history spanning 2000 years. Set in a stunning location, overlooking a 23 acre millpond, the castle displays the development from a Norman fortification to an Elizabethan country house.
Carew Castle still belongs to the Carew family. However, since 1983 the castle, tidal mill, millpond and picnic area have been leased to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. We now runs Carew as a visitor's attraction and educational site.
The site incorporates an impressive 11th century Celtic Cross, the only restored Tidal Mill in Wales, a medieval bridge and a picnic area all linked by a delightful mile roundwalk.
Carew runs a varied education programme which can be adapted to meet the particular needs of groups. The education service includes information for teachers planning a visit, free preparatory visits, teachers' training days, schools programmes, worksheets and guided tours.
