Sadly It will probably be gone before to long. We have some terrible coastal erosion around the UK. I live 10 minutes from the beach 5 years ago I was about 12 minutes from the beach.
If we are getting a castle lets get one inland and up a hill.

Don't worry Bruno the rock up there is pretty tough. We should be OK for a couple of centuries at least!

I guess I should of started saving when I was young. At this rate I'll be about 611 years old before I can buy it.

Maybe we can time share something that is more of a fixer-upper...
This one in Lairg is less (only £ 549,900,) but I am sure still costly to heat.

Nope! We have to have a proper castle. Battlements and all that.
