Endless places to explore
The Castle
This Grade I listed 19th‑century Tudor Gothic mansion was designed by architect Thomas Hopper for Christopher Rice Mansel Talbot. Built between 1830 and 1840 using sandstone from the nearby Pyle quarry, the Castle features highlights such as the grand staircase hall and octagonal tower.
The Gardens
Margam Park is a Grade I listed garden, set within a landscape of beautiful trees, shrubs and seasonal flowers, combining both classic and modern planting to create a space that changes throughout the year.
Deer and Wildlife
The famous Margam Deer Herd today roams through approximately 500 acres (200 hectares) of parkland. There are herds of Fallow, Red and the endangered Pere David Deer. Among the more common mammals to be seen are foxes, badgers, hares, grey squirrels, voles and shrews.
