Carreg Cennen Castle - South Wales   (Rating: 10.00 Votes: 2) Rate It! - Report bad link
Carreg Cennen Castle in South Wales is, in our opinion, one of the best castles in Wales. It stands high on a remote cliff top among the foothills of the Black Mountain. Its location is nothing BUT spectacular: the castle sits atop a limestone crag rising 300 feet above the valley of the river Cennen, which isolates it from the hills to the south and west.

Castell Dinas Bran   (Rating: 7.82 Votes: 11) Rate It! - Report bad link
Castle Dinas Bran is located in Denbighshire, northeast Wales. Dinas Bran sits atop a hill about 1,000 ft above the floor of the Dee Valley in Llangollen. There's a well-marked path to the castle, however, the climb to the top is not an easy one. If you're ever in the area or even staying in Llangollen, make sure you take the time to visit this remarkable castle. (Added: 26-Jan-1999 Hits: 1597)
