If You've Ever Wanted to Live in a Castle. . .

Well, living in a castle might not be everything you've ever dreamed of.  First of all, there don't seem to be many walls or much of a roof.  Also, I can't find the loo.  Watch where you step.   

The monopoly pieces are very cool, but you might not want to pass go or go very far at all.  The playing pieces are bigger than your head and weigh about ten pounds a piece.

At least they do have a place to park your broom when you get back from all the bubble, bubble, toil and troubling.


The view from the window is just breathtaking, but you can just walk around the wall and look at the view directly. 

The doors are lovely arches, but since there's just grass and openness on both sides, I'm not sure of the point of the door.  

Considering that the villagers, one's subjects, have roofs, walls, chimneys, glass windows, wooden doors, loos and such, it might behoove one to give up one's title and go live amongst the unwashed, umm, I mean the probably-washed.  I think they have all the mod-cons down there.  


I'm sure it was all the thing in its day.  Still pretty incredible, if not really livable.  Don't let the door hit you on the way out.  Oh yeah, no door.
