Stay in a castle
Wales - Land of Castles
Wales is renowned as the 'Land of Castles'. Conquering Normans were the first castle builders, constructing strongholds in strategic locations along the coast and deep in the mountains. You really can be king or queen of your own castle when you stay at
Penhow Castle (www.bestloved.com/attractions/penhow-castle-in-near-newport-gwent-wales-uk.php) in South Wales, the oldest lived-in castle in Wales dating from the 17th century, where you can be assured of a good night's sleep in Penhow's one guestroom featuring an Edwin Lutyens bed.
