Ceremony Venue Penycae, Swansea Valley, South Wales  www.craigynoscastle.com The magnificent Craig y Nos Castle Hotel sits majestically aside the River Tawe in the upper reaches of the Swansea Valley in South Wales occupying many acres of gardens and parkland. This neo-gothic masterpiece of a castle was built in 1840 in the shadow of the rugged limestone hills above the Tawe valley. It was bought in 1878 by Adelina Patti who was a renowned diva and actress and was the most famous woman in the world next to Queen Victoria. Her vast wealth allowed her to lavish fortunes into making the castle into her special retreat where she entertained the great and the good of Victorian society. Today the castle is a beautiful hotel and wedding venue in the caring and very capable hands of Martin Gover who, since buying the castle in 2000, has sympathetically restored and rejuvenated this beautiful Castle to its former glory. Now, lavish decor and sumptuously appointed rooms abound making the castle without doubt a sophisticated and romantic place to stay. So if you are in need of pampering or want to "pop the question" to that someone special in your life and the answer is yes, what a magical and romantic setting for your special day.
