The Castle is such a wonderful, unique place to stay and Margaret is my favorite host to date. Her home is clean, comfortable, colorful, and heart-warming...a reflection of Margaret's open heart and spirit.
While visiting briefly, I stayed in the Turret room, was accompanied by Margaret on bikes to the nearby beach where we spotted a seal and a penguin, met resident barkers "Blue" and "Olive," had a tasty breakfast, and toured the neighboring "Arc," meeting its similarly charming creator/owner, Doi.
My only regrets are that I wasn't able to stay longer and decided to pass on the party I was invited to the night following my departure in favor of getting to my next destination in a nearby town (and getting out of the car)--darn those winding roads!
It is a gift to be allowed into Margaret's magical home. Photos don't do it justice and her listing can't convey the extent of her fun, generous spirit. Go into it with an open heart and mind - you'll be glad you did!
