Raglan Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The castle courtyard highlights some of the fine details that went into the castle construction. Raglan is a grand 15th-century castle that eventually fell to Parliamentary forces during the English Civil War (1646). The castle was surrendered mostly in-tact, but was slighted (purposefully disabled) to prevent any future use as a fortification. Today it's an atmospheric ruin that makes for a fun visit.

I arrived to find there was no parking . When it said on booking free parking available. Then at reception I was told you had to pay for parking and car spaces were rent out. So no parking even though I was a student.
