The Old Hall retains a strongly medieval character and dates from 1400 when it was probably the guest house of a small priory outside the walls of Pembroke. It was rescued just in time and this atmospheric Landmark still welcomes guests today. Monkton Old Hall can be booked for short breaks with the Landmark Trust, a charity that restores historic buildings at risk and makes them available for holidays.

Really picturesque place, lovely woodland walk up to the village with a barefoot walk & babbling brook. Knowledgeable staff & lovely tea room. Some parts were closed due to improvements & covid 19 but it didn't spoil our trip.

Beaumaris Gaol

Reviewed By Trinigasman - Richmond-upon-Thames, United Kingdom

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour around this remarkable building with a fascinating history. It’s been a goal, held prisoners of war and been police station. It’s history is explained on numerous information boards you read as you go around and questions are answered by friendly and well informed staff. Ask about the paranormal activity in the place if you want to make your tour around feel a bit more spooky! Their COVID precautions are good and everyone was observing them which was great. We we there for about 90 minutes but pretty much read everything! Recommend.

Beaumaris Courthouse

Reviewed By easterntravellers

These combined visits were very interesting. Excellent and informative signage and posters etc. The limits of Covid meant no audio guides which I am sure would be very good for the future. The sight of the original treadmills is unique - a very atmospheric experience
