Not quite sure what castle like means. In my case, thick stone walls, 4 storeys high, old - true./ large - no (I only have a 4 m street façade) For those of you familiar with the story of <<Tarzan>>, and think of castles, I suggest you visit Greystoke Castle, its foot print is sufficient for a two car garage, but is 3 stories high. I use this as a comparrison for those who have never seen a real castle. In the remake of the film a few years back, they used the real Roxburgh Castle as Greystoke, of which two of such would fit in Roxgburgh´s great hall. When they did the most recent Mary Queen of Scots film, they could not use the contemporary parts of Hollyrood, as the rooms were too small to have cameras, lights, and action. In the earlier (Hepburn) black and white version, the grand stair case of Holyrood (should have been a spiral too narrow for two to pass), would have put Buckingham Palace to shame, not to mention all those actors running around in modern military kilts and sets.
