Cadw have carried out a wonderful build of the banqueting hall, towers and flower garden. The animated video explains the history of the castle and the main characters. Well worth a visit.

Beautiful castle ruins and certainly worth a visit. What i found the most impressive is that there weren't many areas you couldn't explore, so it was great to be let loose to find all the nooks and crannies of the castle, and there are loads of little hidden places to find. Great price and certainly can take up an hour or two of your time very easily. The staff as always were very friendly too.
