Description

Hay Castle warmly invites couples to unite in a unique and special way; an ancient monument beautifully embellished with contemporary design. A site of great historical interest and a centre for literature, the arts and education. Hay Castle sits proudly in the heart of Hay-on-Wye, the famous Town of Books; an inspiring location, home to the globally renowned Hay Festival and set against the impressive backdrop of the Black Mountains. Offering a relaxed and elegant environment, Hay Castle provides both a fascinating and stunning space to hold weddings, blessings and civil ceremonies. Our tale goes back almost a thousand years, from medieval sieges to the swinging sixties and with a select number of weddings hosted here each year, this is a rare opportunity to weave your story into the fabric of Hay Castle's history.
