This is not your everyday castle...er home! That is for sure! I was driving around Palm Harbor enjoying the afternoon and getting ready to go to a party when I happened to pass this castle! It looked like someone had dismantled it in England and put it back together again right in Palm Harbor!!! I could not believe my eyes!

Naturally, I had to get a picture! I walked right up to the gate, put my camera between the bars and (waiting to get shot or have the hounds set on me) clicked my photo!!! So here you have it! Is this unreal or what???

This is pretty cool.... what a site to see here in the US hummm?   When we visited France we went 'castle hopping' and it was so fun!  So worth seeing... 'when in rome'

That is so cool! We have a few houses that look like castles in one of our local neighborhoods but they sure don't look like that!

Wow great house.  I saw a piece on the news that Phil Spector has suits of armor in his house, he doesn't live there does he?

Wow, with gargoyles and knights too! I almost expected to see a long blonde braid hanging down from that turret off to the right!
