Our family has always dreamed of staying at the castle, and this year we made it happen. It was everything we dreamed it would be. The cottage inside the castle walls was charming and comfortable, and it was an amazing experience to shut the castle gate at night and realize that we had it to ourselves. You could imagine the lives of those who came before as darkness fell and the wind blew and the sound of crashing waves floated up the hillside (while enjoying our comfy beds and bathrooms!) Just a heads up that there are a lot of steep stairs in the cottage, and we would have been happy with a couple more double beds rather than so many twin beds, but all in all, it was pretty near perfect. A true bucket-list experience you won't want to miss.
