Old Castle Open Day
For anyone walking up to the Old Castle, we kindly ask that you make a donation to charity. This time, we will be supporting the superb Tŷ Gobaith.
Tŷ Gobaith, based in Conwy, North Wales, cares for babies, children and young adults up to the age of 25 years with life-threatening conditions. Ty Gobaith is a ‘home from home’ for many children and young people who are sadly suffering from life-threatening conditions and are heading into the final stages of their lives.
Your donation can be made in advance (below), or on the day (cash or card payments accepted).
Last admission to the Old Castle will be 3pm.
Join us in October for the spring edition of the Old Castle open day.
Access the Old Castle and The Walled Garden from the big blue gates opposite The Glynne Arms or from the entrance at Hawarden Estate Farm Shop.
Pay for your ticket below.
All children must be accompanied. Paths up to the castle are steep and uneven. Dogs are welcome on leads.
