Situated halfway between Brecon and Swansea, Craig-y-Nos Castle is the jewel in the crown of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Built in 1843, the Castle was once home to renowned opera singer Adelina Patti who sang privately for Queen Victoria. The Grade One listed opera house has a full weddings licence, providing couples with a unique and truly glorious venue for wedding ceremonies that cannot be surpassed in the whole of Wales.
Craig-y-Nos Castle and its grounds provide magnificent opportunities for photographs with stunning views over the country park, the River Tawe and our own listed gardens.
