Where to stay in Gwent

Well-preserved oval mound that once hosted gladiatorial combat and military processions. This amphitheater was built for the Roman forces at Isca around AD 90 and would have seated around 6000 spectators!

Caerleon

4/5(5 area reviews)

Explore Caerleon's rich history at the National Roman Legion Museum and Roman Baths Museum, or unwind at the Millennium Wildlife Garden. Dine at The Priory or Olde Bull Inn, and easily access Newport and Cwmbran via bus or train.

Caerleon
This was a winter morning shot. You can go here anytime of the year as no two days are the same. There's ample parking, amenities and a lake behind the castle. Good selection of wildlife. Plenty of room to explore. Not rushed.

Caldicot

Discover a medieval castle, stroll along waymarked footpaths on Caldicot Levels, or visit Dewstow House's gardens and grottoes. Enjoy convenient transport links to Newport, Cardiff, and Bristol.

Caldicot
The coolest "bridge" I have ever "driven" across! Drive aboard and take flight over the River Usk in this 110 year old engineering marvel. Only six of these historic bridges remain in operation, and the Newport Bridge is the longest with a 196m span (645ft). A modern highway bridge passes nearby, so these days the bridge operates as a novelty. Show up on either side, and the operator will come pick you up! You can also climb the steps and walk across the 54m

Pillgwenlly

Riverside view from Caerleon Road The view northeastwards from Caerleon Road across the River Usk valley. Glimpses of the muddy banks of the Usk can be seen in the foreground, several metres below the level of the road. On the far side of the river, a temporary small lake illustrates the marshy nature of the low-lying ground. In the distance are buildings in Caerleon ST3390
