Bodelwyddan Castle is situated in Denbighshire, North Wales. Set in 260 acres of magnificent parkland, the Castle is now an outstation of the National Portrait Gallery and is open to the public most days throughout the year.

As well as being a historic house and museum with a free audio tour available, the Castle also boasts large areas of formal garden and natural woodland. A particular feature is the area of practice trenches dating from the First World War.

It is an ideal location for a family day out with something for everybody, including an adventure playground, garden maze, victorian games room, gift shop and tea room.

Have fun with the interactive exhibits in our specially created learning environment, where you can have an email photo taken dressed in Victorian costume.

Occasional special events and exhibitions are arranged through the year and we can also be the ideal setting for your wedding.

(The Castle is run by a charitable trust with the aim of providing education and public services.)
