What's Happening at the Castle?

I've been asked that several times over the last few weeks, as visitors who had not been in Hay for a while noticed that the Castle is no longer open as a bookshop.
King Richard has, of course, moved out, and now has a much smaller shop across the road from the Castle - called The King of Hay.
Restoration has started inside the Castle, with new skirting boards and repairs to windows. There are plans to restore the enormous fireplaces, and plans to put a wheelchair ramp in through the original front door.
This weekend, for the Winter Festival, there will be a dinner for the Friends of Hay Castle, and there will be guided tours of the castle during the day.
