The visitor centre is situated alongside the castle with a flat even walk to the outer ward, over a wide wooden bridge. Much of the castle can be seen from ground level, however all areas have a grass covering apart from the access from the outer ward to the inner ward, which is gravel. The grass is kept short throughout the year.
- There are sitting areas throughout the castle grounds. There are two medium/large charging car parks within a few minutes' walk (approx. 200 meters) of the castle entrance, both with accessible parking spaces. Access to the corridors within the castle is via various short, narrow staircases of around 10-15 steps, and there are some internal steps once you are inside. Whilst the towers at Beaumaris Castle are shorter than at other sites, there is still a considerable number of steps should you wish to experience the wall walks.
