Fascinating and well preserved fortified manor house, with a well presented exhibition which explains the site in depth, as well as others in the area. Some fine architectural features survive which are more usually robbed out of medieval buildings, such as stone window frames and traceries. The farm takes payment for CADW and also sells guidebooks, as well as the salt marsh lamb that they produce. There are stunning views from the castle of the Gower salt marshes and the mainland beyond. The farmer could not be more friendly and helpful.

It's fine just to stop to have a look around. Nothing too exciting, but still worth visiting. Adult entry £4, slightly overpriced as for the amount of time you spend there, possibly 30mins to see this quite small castle. Perhaps days out at Weobley Castle look differently during the weekend, as they may be able to provide additional attractions at surrounding grounds and outside the castle.

This castle has an interesting location, sitting on an escarpment overlooking salt marsh. There is a small exhibition explaining the Norman and medieval history of the Gower and Weobley in particular. The exhibition is interesting but needs refreshing as it is a little tired looking now.

The site is run from the farmhouse where you can also purchase local meat, including saltmarsh lamb. The farmer was helpful and friendly. It costs £4.00 to enter and less for students. No dogs allowed though.

Amazing views and good walks roundabout.

Went to a friend's wedding here and it is a stunning spot for it!! Castle is also great and there are lush walks around if you are there on a normal day (not at an event). There is also camping available in the field right next to the castle and event area.

Very nice place. Views are lovely, we went for the weekend for the VW festival, very cozy. Food prices were good. Couldn't fault the place. Definitely going back

A beautiful ruined castle. View from there is magnificent and gets me imagined an ancient lives who lived here. Payed admission fees at the farmhouse where some packed lambs are sold. £11.60 for family of four. Kids under 5 is free. Parking space is not large and seems about up to 5 cars.

You won't be visiting this castle because there is lots to do or even see, you will be visiting because of the beautiful views of the estuary and the history that's involved. I like the fact that it hasn't been rebuilt, granted you can walk round it in under 30 minutes but on a nice day you can enjoy the ample space to just sit and enjoy the natural beauty. It doesn't cost much to get in, there is a small shop selling Saltmarsh Lamb, not a huge car park but then I wouldn't expect this place to be flooded with visitors. We went in September, we were there around an hour, one other family arrived just as we were leaving
