A Place for all Occasions

Please note that Llancaiach Fawr Manor is currently closed to the general public.

Caerphilly County Borough Council made the difficult decision to mothball the site from the end of December 2024 while it explores options to operate the venue in a different way in future.

The information on this website is now archival, and for reference only.

    “I popped in here this afternoon with my children 8 and 6 on the way back from Mountain Ash. I haven’t been to Llancaiach Fawr since I was in school. It is so much better than I remembered! It was an excellent afternoon, all staff were so interesting and knowledgeable the children listened and sat through a lot of information. I just wanted to drop a line to say thank you. I was trying to avoid the shops and busy holiday things and I am so pleased we called in. Diolch!”

    “Last Thursday, I and some family friends from England spent some time at the Manor House and I would like to say how much we enjoyed the whole experience including the excellent tour guides who were both informative and fascinating to both converse with and listen to. Most importantly as someone of limited mobility (I rely on a mobility walker) I was most appreciative of the thought and effort that has been put into maximising accessibility without compromising the historic nature of the building. The tour guides were so helpful as well. A benchmark for so many other attractions to emulate. Well done!- Lewis Chamberlain“
