A nice little hidden gem in a beautiful village. We had a look one Sunday while there was a local event taking place, so we weren't sure what parts of the castle we could see or couldn't, hence why we've only given 4 stars for now. It's worth a look if you're in the area or near by visiting Chepstow.

Really fun stay with a family of friends-"great grounds and good comfy room with good facilities. Plenty of space to chill in the castle! And great breakfast 🥣.

Nice from the outside, but now a hostel. Can't visit it.

I can't speak of st braivels as a yha because we were there for a private function weekend. The rooms are one of a kind as you would expect castle like. The beds are very comfortable the showers and toilets clean and modern. This yha is steeped in history and is haunted, so keep an eye out for that unexpected visitor. There is a pub less than a stones throw down the road and a very interesting church opposite. I have no doubt that any one would enjoy a stay here.

A wonderful building, set in a beautiful village. In use throughout the year as a YHA hostel, and open to the public from April to September. Well worth a visit.

I am apart of The Paranormal Emporium ghost hunting team we held a ticketed event at the castle for 3 days we had some absolutely amazing activity all weekend and hosted some interactive games for Halloween. The castle is absolutely stunning aswell as the surrounding areas. I seriously reccomend staying at the castle it has such a great history behind it and it's beautiful inside and out, the staff at the castle are so welcoming and friendly.

The castle is a Grade I listed ancient monument, a rich piece of history and an inspiring location. Be transported back in time to Medieval world of King John and the Magna Carta within this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The castle is over 800 years old, with bags of character and remarkably well-preserved
