Beautifully preserved Chepstow Castle stretches out along a limestone cliff above the River Wye like a history lesson in stone. There’s no better place in Britain to see how castles gradually evolved to cope with ever more destructive weaponry – and the grandiose ambitions of their owners. For more than six centuries Chepstow was home to some of the wealthiest and most powerful men of the medieval and Tudor ages. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for unexpected closures, opening times, events, and site facilities.

STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. We offer private, tailor made experiences with our friendly, cute animals! You'll meet our alpacas, sheep, and miniature donkeys, all in the stunning Monmouthshire countryside. Please go to our website to see the different experiences we offer, or alternatively, send us an email.

PLEASE NOTE ALL VISITS MUST BE PRE-BOOKED IN ADVANCE. Have you ever dreamt of meeting alpacas up close? Perhaps you'd like to hand feed alpacas or just chill-out with them? Amazing Alpacas are pleased to offer private farm visits for individuals or groups, who wish to experience alpacas first hand. Book up now for a private farm visit lasting about 90 minutes. See our web page for full details and prices.
