    As stated by someone else, residents can get free entry passes that last three years. You need a passport sized photo and £1. Available from the tourist info building. Not valid on "event" days.

    Marvelous Castle. Worth the visit. Around 7 pounds the admission. Reserve at least 3 hours.

    Largest castle in Wales and second largest in the UK. Brilliant views! For cheapest entry, look out for events. ☺

    Explore everywhere. Careful of passing people on the stairs. They are exceptionally narrow even for a castle.
