Craig Y Nos Castle is a fairytale venue located on the edge of the Brecon Beacons. Boasting 36 en suite bedrooms, an on-site gym with high-quality apparatus, a private lounge and a hot tub, the property is surrounded by breathtaking grounds with plenty of places for guests to explore and take photographs. Once home to Adelina Patti, the world-famous opera singer, Craig Y Nos Castle has a long and interesting history with a stunning décor throughout.

Celebrate in style
Couples looking to tie the knot in a grand setting will love The Theatre. It’s one of only eight Grade I listed opera houses in the UK and boasts a 125-year-old curtain depicting Madame Patti on a chariot in Rossini’s last Italian opera. What’s more, the walls are decorated with the names of Patti’s favourite composers and there is room for 120 guests.

Once the ceremony has taken place, couples can choose from several reception areas, including the Conservatory, which has room for 130 loved ones, and the Music and Billard Room which can accommodate 120 friends and family.

Alternatively, The Patti Bar and Nicolini Lounge are located in the centre of the castle and are available for nearest and dearest to use throughout the night.

We love...
The happy couple and their friends and family can organise a tour of the castle to find out more about its rich history.
