Very atmospheric ruins . Peaceful place to explore. Worth every penny of the entrance fee.
Wonderful place. Good explanatory boards, with diagrams, set out in English and Welsh . Be careful where you park as only some places will refund the parking fee.
Fab place to visit on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Enjoy Sunday lunch from the local opposite pub and enjoy the views of the abbey, river and valley.
Very beautiful! Make sure you have change for the parking machines, and enough leftover time for a stop at the nearby pub .
Best experience in my life so far
Don’t miss the Devil’s Pulpit – a limestone rock jutting out from the cliff where the Devil was said to have preached to the monks below. Read more
Skip the fee to park lot and park in the free to park lot behind the Abbey across from the Anchor Inn .
On a Sunny day it is great for picnics

Suggestiva ed emozionante abbazia in rovina, in una valle verde nascosta nella foresta .
