Carew Castle (http://www.carewcastle.com/) started life as a Norman fortification and ended up as an Elizabethan country house. It overlooks a 23 acre mill pond spanned by a medieval bridge and a restored tidal mill. An 11th C Celtic cross stands on the site. There is a picnic spot opposite and the family friendly Carew Inn just over the road.A ticket to the castle (less than £4) includes entry to the tidal mill. Laminated information sheets can be borrowed and will guide you around each impressive building. Additional information boards are located around the castle. Children are very well catered for with quiz sheets to complete on route.
The walk from the castle to the mill across the medieval bridge and back to the car park is about a mile - making this an easy and very pleasant morning or afternoons entertainment.
