Castell Harlech crowns a sheer rocky crag overlooking the dunes far below – waiting in vain for the tide to turn and the distant sea to lap at its feet once again. No further drama is really required but, just in case, the rugged peaks of Eryri (Snowdonia) rise as a backdrop. Against fierce competition from Conwy, Caernarfon and Beaumaris, this is probably the most spectacular setting for any of Edward I’s castles in North Wales. All four are designated as a World Heritage Site.

Castell Harlech sy’n coroni clegyr creigiog serth fry uwchben y twyni tywod – yn aros yn ofer i’r llanw droi ac i’r môr pell lepian wrth ei droed unwaith eto. Nid oes angen rhagor o ddrama a dweud y gwir ond, rhag ofn, mae copaon garw Eryri yn codi y tu ôl iddo. Yn erbyn cystadleuaeth frwd gan Gonwy, Caernarfon a Biwmares, mae’n siŵr mai hwn yw’r safle mwyaf ysblennydd i unrhyw un o gestyll Edward I yng Ngogledd Cymru. Dynodwyd y pedwar i gyd yn Safle Treftadaeth y Byd.
