Present Day
The Welsh Office maintained Craig-y-nos Castle and its unique theatre, until the castle was bought on a long term lease by a consortium of businessmen who formed the Craig y Nos Castle Company. During the long period of restoration, the castle remained open to the public, but after its sale to SelClene Ltd this ended. SelClene continued the restoration, and opened the castle as a hotel.
In 2005, the castle featured in the BBC Dr Who episode Tooth and Claw, featuring David Tennant as the Doctor and Billie Piper as Rose Tyler. The Torchwood crew later stayed at this hotel and filmed some scenes when filming Countrycide.
