If you live in the UK, there’s probably a castle within driving distance of your home. And you’re likely to have visited once or twice in your lifetime, too, providing your children with a potted history of its existence.
But do you know where the idea of a castle comes from?
Castles that you visit in this country might have been built hundreds of years ago and may even be over 1,000 years old, but people still live in castles, others get married in them and some have become castle hotels (like we have!).
