So glad we chose to visit this place on our way back from South Wales, it is right iff M4 so worked for us, Beautiful grounds, lake, house. We had a nice walk along the lake, enjoyed picnic, visited the play area and also the house. They had many activities for children there, including art and craft. Good facilities and parking.

Caerleon Roman Fortress and Baths

The remains on view at Caerleon provide the visitor with a vivid picture of life in second-century Roman Britain. Some 12 miles down the Roman road you will come across Venta Silurum, the first town in Wales and the tribal capital of the Silures. We call it Caerwent today. If you get a chance, pop down to see its surrounding walls and the remains of shops, a Romano-Celtic temple and the forum-basilica. The displayed opening times are our general pattern. Please check the Cadw website for specific times and days, including closures.

This was a second tour of Wales using wherewhenwales.com tours. It was of the Wye Valley area including stops at Caerleon Roman Fortress and Baths, Chepstow Castle, Tintern Abbey, and the scenic Wye Valley. Stopped in Monmouth Town for lunch on this day long tour. Very good guide.

Caerleon Amphitheatre

Reviewed By robsT9648IO - Gold Coast, Australia

The Caerleon Amphitheatre is all part of the extended complex that illustrates the Roman influence in the region. The ruins are impressive and free to access. They help understand Roman life of almost 2000 years ago.
