Latest 5 star Airbnb review from our guest

Hay-on-Wye Castle is a historic fortress located in the small market town of Hay-on-Wye in Powys, Wales, near the English border.

The castle is a key landmark in the town, which is famous for its literary festivals and bookshops. It has a rich history, dating back to the Norman Conquest.

The castle was originally a Norman motte-and-bailey structure built around 1100 by William Revel.

It was later replaced by a stone keep and expanded into a more substantial fortification in the 12th and 13th centuries.

Over the centuries, the castle was attacked, burned, and rebuilt several times. It was a focal point during regional conflicts, including the rebellion of Welsh prince Llywelyn ap Gruffudd.

In the 17th century, parts of the castle were converted into a Jacobean mansion, incorporating some of the medieval ruins.

By the 20th century, the castle had fallen into ruin. In 2011, it was purchased by the Hay Castle trust, which launched a major restoration project to preserve its heritage.
