[MR] BBC: "What's It Like to Live in a Castle?"

[Michelle C]

For your Virginia castle list, may I suggest Bacon's Castle?

If you ever extend your list to all of Atlantia, I'd recommend Castle
McCulloch, even though they're so busy trying to sell their image as a
wedding venue, the don't have a picture of the castle on their website.
(You can see it in the opener of their wedding video.)
