Saw 3 cars squeezed in the layby on St Athens Road (opposite the white gate of a property). The entrance is not hard to find, just follow the sign. Cross the low wall into the 1st field, follow the public path, then cross a wooden balustrade into the 2nd field, walk for about 4-6 min, you will pass through a metal gate into the 3rd field, another 4-6 min you will see the castle. Saw a few cows in the 2nd and 3rd fields, no trouble from any farmers.

Followed the advice of others here and parked in the layby on St Athens Road, just opposite a white gate. Overshot it first time, had to double-back. Only room for 3 cars so just about squeezed in. The sign and sty are overgrown but once you're in the layby you can't miss it. Cut across two fields of cows, no trouble from any farmers or anything, and you're there. Nice little castle, good for an hour at most.

It is stunning, it’s free and you can walk freely in there, the architecture and history is impressive, the view is breathtaking . You can take very nice pictures there, there are good informations about the place and safety signs everywhere. To get there you have to walk through a land full of sheep, they are cute.

Its a great little Castle to look around. Its free too but you have to walk across a couple of fields as the farmer doesnt allow you to drive past his farm even though signs show thats the way and theres even a car park there but you cant use it so its baffling tbh.

Completely impossible to access finding the entrance was a nightmare could have walked up the road to make things easier but it’s somebody’s farm. It could make a extra path for people to visit the castle rather than walking through a soggy field full of cows running up to you do not recommend if you have children that love castles but cannot get into it !
