    Good

    A relative had been years ago, it had only reopened recently after Covid and not all areas were open, but we had a very good guide who took us round and gave us lots of background detail.

    There is a lift up from the car park to the actual site. Although it is a ruin there are lots of paved areas making it easy to get round most of it.

    Excellent

    We were greeted by a volunteer who had great local and historical knowledge. He told us the best route to go round the site, and made it all very interesting.

    Additional Information

    Only 4 people allowed in the chapel and plenty of ventilation in the other indoor area.
