The ruins of imposing Criccieth Castle are a superb example of a native castle. Built during the reign of Llywelyn the Great, one of the greatest Welsh statesmen of the Middle Age, these spectacular ruins, dramatically situated on the headland between two sandy beaches, tower over the blue waters of the bay. The castle looks down on the pretty seaside resort of Criccieth, and offers a vista from which to survey the North Cambrian Coast and the Llŷn Peninsula of North Wales.

Situated on the Cardigan Bay shore of the Lynn peninsula in the northwest of Wales, Criccieth is known as ‘The Pearl Of Wales On The Shores Of Snowdonia’ and more than lives up to this spectacular description thanks to its setting. The views it offers, and the appeal of its south facing aspect, are enough to place a very warm glow inside you. The shoreline itself is divided in two by a rocky outcrop and the ruins of Criccieth castle sit on this outcrop.
