Just a few miles the Welsh coastal village Newgale lies the towering fortress of Roch Castle which has been standing since the 12th Century. Just a quick glance of this impressive structure and you can see it bears a striking resemblance to the House of Starks home of Winterfell. Built between 1195 and 1210 by the Norman knight Adam de Rupe, the castle is made from stone walls that measure five feet deep, keeping any rivals a bay.
Visitors who venture to Pembrokeshire will discover the legend of why de Rupe chose the highest room as his secret hideout.
Unfortunately, fast forward four hundred years later, the castle was almost burned to the ground during the English Civil War resulting in Roch Castle to lay in ruins for centuries.
Fortune soon changed when the landmark was purchased in 1900 that by Viscount St Davids and bought back to its former glory.
Today, the castle is successfully entertaining guests in more ways than ever.
