Lovely free to visit in a village with lots of non chain, independent shops and cafes Fantastic ruin, free for anyone to visit, great scenic views of distant Welsh mountains and vernacular townscape of Clun. Amazing history of Welsh vs English and strategically located close to the Welsh border. The Welsh won! The ruins of Clun are accessible on foot from the town near the bowling green. Maintenance work is being currently undertaken by English heritage so access is restricted. However you can still experience great views as you explore the site. Wear good footwear as the paths can be tricky. The town of Clun itself is set in beautiful countryside and well worth spending some time in the area Fascinating ruin of a Norman castle. There's spots to sit and look at view and picnic. Signage to explain history as well. Walking shoes a good idea. Lovely walk from the designated carpark, over the bridge to the big expanse of grassland. That runs along the river, to the left and a glimpse of the ruins to the right. There are some little pathways worn into the hill that takes you up to the ruins. These can be tricky for those persons not so nimble but with a sturdy stick or two or a capable friend/relative, most could manage it. The views at the top of the climb are well worth it. There are some very handy benches to sit at when you reach the top and another by the ruins. It's definitely worth the climb. Lovely village,a real community and wanting to share their heritage with tourists Interesting little castle, surrounded in beautiful countryside, quite small but free to visit Ruins were stunning set in a lovely scenery. Great short break with a small village and convenient parking. Highly recommend if you're in the area! A fantastic little stop-off at this historical site during our holiday! The history here is absolutely fascinating, and there was plenty of well-presented information to bring it to life. The setting is beautiful, with a charming stream running nearby, making it the perfect spot to take in the atmosphere. My partner and I enjoyed a peaceful picnic on a bench, surrounded by the tranquil scenery. Highly recommended for anyone who loves history and a picturesque place to relax! Not a lot there, but a pleasant afternoon in the sunshine. Nice view from the top and an enjoyable walk around. The village is picturesque. A great place to visit, we make a point of stopping in Clun on our North South Drives. Absolutely charming small town, with much more to it, than I first realised. Great toilets in the car park by the castle. The carpark is quite small. A fabulous cafe by the bridge with lovely outdoor seating. Great place to explore and walk around. Dog friendly and different points of access so you can explore the town as well.
