Background
History
The construction of a house in the castle grounds began in 1808 for John Bowen, partially using the foundations and a 13th-century round tower of the original Cardigan Castle. It was extended in 1827 by David Evans, for Arthur Jones, the High Sheriff of Cardiganshire. The house became a Grade II* listed building in 1961. The castle and house were restored led by the Cadwgan Building Preservation Trust, using £12 million of funding. It re-opened to the public in 2015. The main house became the location for displays about its occupants, the castle and the National Eisteddfod of Wales. The building is also used for luxury guest accommodation.
