    Bodelwyddan Castle and Park offers visitors a blend of history, art, and natural beauty. The Victorian castle, set in 260 acres of parkland, houses a variety of exhibits that cater to different interests. The partnership with the National Portrait Gallery means guests can enjoy an impressive collection of portraits. The grounds feature well-maintained gardens, woodland walks, and a maze, providing ample opportunity for outdoor activities.

    Visitors generally appreciate the diverse range of things to see and do, from exploring the castle's period rooms to participating in interactive exhibits. The staff are often praised for their knowledge and friendliness. Many find the World War I trenches replica particularly educational and moving.

    However, some guests mention that certain areas of the castle and grounds could benefit from renovation or better upkeep. A few visitors have noted that the experience might be somewhat limited for the admission price, especially during off-peak seasons when some areas may be closed.

    The on-site café receives mixed reviews, with some enjoying the offerings while others find them average. Accessibility is generally good, but some areas of the castle and grounds may be challenging for those with mobility issues.

    Overall, Bodelwyddan Castle and Park provides an engaging day out for families, history enthusiasts, and art lovers, offering a good balance of indoor and outdoor activities. While it may not be the most extensive castle experience in Wales, it offers enough variety to make for an enjoyable visit.
