Are all the areas accessible with a pushchair? We have a nearly two year old who can walk but not for long distances. We were just wondering whether it would be okay for him in his pushchair or are there some areas we would have to miss out on? We could carry him to parts but just worried if some areas are uneven to do so. Many thanks. Laura

While we welcome all visitors, visitors with prams may find it difficult to navigate around Gwrych Castle. The property was built into a hill so the terrain is often uneven, with many steep footpaths. We recommend visitors to leave the pram in the car or alternatively you may have to carry it until you reach the top & even area where the I’m A Celebrity props are.
We require visitors to pre-book prior to arriving via our website. If you wish to see the castle when we’re closed, we would recommend viewing the castle from Pensarn Beach.
