Oh dear! Poor Geraldus Cambrensis must be spinning in his grave!
I had high expectations of Manorbier, but was sadly disappointed. Although it's a nice, compact castle, the differences between this privately-owned and -run establishment and one belonging to CADW/English Heritage were all too obvious. Information boards were highly informative, but there weren't enough of them, easy consolidation and restoration works (such as making the wall walks accessible) had been ignored, and the guidebook was thin, both literally and in terms of content. Where was the display about Gerald, his works, his travels, and his world? Why were none of his books available from the shop? Nothing about the GWR Castle-class engine of the same name as the castle?
We bought a snack lunch in the shop, but quickly wished we hadn't. The sausage rolls were supposed to have been heated in microwave, but were still, for the most part, stone cold, with the remainder only faintly warm (and who puts sausage rolls in a microwave anyway? Everyone knows it makes the pastry go soggy.) The bara brith wasn't much better - despite being the first day of the season, it was dry and the fruit was hard.
I sincerely hope that the castle will one day (soon) pass into public ownership and receive the care, attention, displays, and cafe it both deserves and needs.

We zagen dit kasteel en zijn gestopt bij de parkeerplaats. Het ziet eruit tussen een kasteel en ruïne. Daar ik moeilijk ter been ben is mijn zus even gaan kijken of dit zinvol was voor mij om dat de ervaring leert dat deze oude gebouwen niet altijd te bezoeken zijn voor mij. Ik zou alleen de binnenplaats kunnen bekijken, de rest waren met trappetjes enz. Daar ga ik geen entree voor betalen en omdat we nog een eind moesten rijden zijn we verder gegaan.

The origins of Manorbier castle date back to 1130 when William de Barri erects a stone hall keep and (old tower) linked by a wooden palissade. In 1230 a stone gatehouse and a curtain wall are added to strengthen the defences.
In the second half of the thirteenth century comfort is increased with the construction of a chapel and crypt and a new solar block (noble dwelling).
In 1359 the de Barri family sell their estate. The castle gradually falls to ruin, being managed by non resident stewards and mainly used for agricultural purposes.

Visitors can discover Manorbier castle with the help of a guide book and information leaflets. I advise to use the former as the latter are sometimes confusing / incorrectly located and because the book also provides information about life in the middle ages.
The various stages of construction and the layout of the stronghold can still be easily identified. You get a good idea of what a baronial residence looked like back then, without architectural details. The stone hall keep is deemed the oldest of its kind in Wales.
The platform of the gatehouse and the round tower can be scaled but the wallwalk is inaccessible apart from a short stretch near the former kitchen .
Manorbier castle is highly picturesque and its courtyard has a very romantic atmosphere. The beach is only a few hundred yards away. So bring your camera !

Amazing how much of the castle is still in great condition. You can explore most of the castle and plenty to read about. A very small cafe which was nice but only a couple of seats.

The castle is beautiful and what you’d expect of a ruin. Some part are in very good order and you can see the dungeon and walk the castle wall. Exceptionally well kept. £6.50 for an adult I think was very overpriced but it is privately owned. Disappointed by the coffee shop which has a small inside area of seating but you can only sit outside! Staff didn’t seem over friendly. So suggest the tea room up the road which was excellent.

The castle entrance is a short walk from the car park via a 'secret passage' which leads towards the main gate. Plenty of narrow steps leading to the towers, possibly could be lit better, but it is a 13 century building. Large grassed area for kids to run around and some interesting facts. The £18.00 family ticket may not be woth it for some but this castle needs to be preserved. It survived the English Civil War without a shot being fired.

Stunning location. It was so interesting being able to explore the towers, great hall, crypt & other nooks and crannies. Lovely coffee shop with homemade cakes and delightful staff. Highly recommended, a wonderful visit.

I am a massive fan of castles and this is not a bad ruin, but there is little to see inside to justify the price, especially as part of the small interior has been turned into holiday accommodation. Whilst we did not visit the café, we struggled to fill half an hour inside, going at a leisurely pace. There is virtually no information available on the history of the castle nor its occupiers. I am sure they will sell you a guide book, but every decent historical monument provides more information than this as standard, where there is an entry fee. With some more information to read as you go round or even an audio guide, this might extend your visit enough to validate an entry fee.
Take your photos from the beach (it is a pretty castle) but there are better ones to pay to go inside in the near vicinity.
