YHA St Briavels

You will have no trouble thinking what to write on your postcards when you stay at this centre, housed in a moated Norman castle.

Originally built as a hunting lodge for King John in 1205 on the site of an earlier stronghold, its towers were added in 1293 as part of the Ring of Stone around Wales. Its a unique experience, especially when you enter into the ancient spirit with medieval banquets during August.
