Craig-Y-Nos Castle in the 1800's
Ernest Nicolini, One of Patti's husbands
Craig-y-Nos Castle is nestled away in the scenic Brecon Beacons National Park. Once the home of famous opera singer Adelina Patti, the castle has a reputation as one of the most notorious haunted venues in the UK.

Its history is short but intriguing as it was not only graced by royalty in Patti's day but was once a TB sanitorium and then a geriatric hospital before becoming the function house which it is today.

Still complete with the original embalming slab in the cellar and derelict hospital ward floors, the castle is the ideal venue for any paranormal enthusiast.

The function rooms are atmospheric and en-suite bedrooms are luxurious - what more could a paranormal investigator ask for?

Old castles with their links to the past often conjure up pictures of ghosts and paranormal events. Craig-y-Nos Castle is no exception and has established a reputation amongst "ghost watchers" who have experienced the special aura which captivates all those who sense it.

The castle offers mid-week ghost tours with seances, mediums and table tipping. These are occasional specialist events put on by The Paranormal World, with around ten people.

Details of booking these tours can be given on request.
