Ok so yes, it's a castle.. but the true gem here is Pete!!! He was the best host I've had to date. My daughter is still talking about how hilarious he is, and is asking when we are going back. The space is comfy and perfect for relaxing away from the city. I had a horrible cold and Pete fixed me right up! If you are thinking about staying here, do it! My only regret is not having more time the next morning to explore.
