Nick our property host was fantastic. The castle exceeded our expectations on size and value for money. Not to mention the jacuzzi that was almost as tall as me 🙄😅. The property was cleaned throughout, perfect temperatures and the company provided with plenty of information for surrounding areas and transportation as we had no car. Would 100% recommend. Thank you to all the team!!! ##### James Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [IQ Hotel Firenze](https://www.expedia.ca/Florence-Hotels-IQ-Hotel-Firenze.h89035039.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Québec City](https://www.expedia.ca/Quebec-City-Hotels.d180017.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Brooklyn](https://www.expedia.ca/Brooklyn-Hotels.d177851.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel 1898](https://www.expedia.ca/Barcelona-Hotels-Hotel-1898.h1281487.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Vraj Temple](https://www.expedia.ca/Vraj-Temple-Hotels.0-l648651364552224768-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Figueroa, an Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.ca/Los-Angeles-Hotels-Hotel-Figueroa.h8805682.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Plano](https://www.expedia.ca/Plano-Hotels.d9126.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Downtown Minneapolis by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Minneapolis-St-Paul-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Downtown-Minneapolis.h116673.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Century Hong Kong](https://www.expedia.ca/Hong-Kong-Hotels-Novotel-Century-Hong-Kong.h328571.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Seattle Airport - Southcenter](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-DoubleTree-Suites-By-Hilton-Seattle-Airport-Southcenter.h20455.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Lake Placid](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Placid-Hotels.d6055989.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Kananaskis Mountain Lodge, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kananaskis-Hotels-Kananaskis-Mountain-Lodge.h14175.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Havana](https://www.expedia.ca/5Star-Havana-Hotels.s50-0-d1432.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Paisley (GLA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/gla/toronto-to-glasgow) > > [Flights from Cassidy (YCD) to Port Alberni (YPB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ycd/ypb/nanaimo-to-port-alberni) > > [Flights from Spokane (GEG) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/geg/mia/spokane-to-miami) > > [Flights from Hamilton (YHM) to Hilton Head Island (HHH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhm/hhh/hamilton-to-hilton-head-island) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Sofia (SOF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lhr/sof/london-to-sofia) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Lapu-Lapu (CEB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/ceb/calgary-to-cebu) > > [Flights from Abbotsford (YXX) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxx/yeg/abbotsford-to-edmonton) ### Cars > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Bromont](https://www.expedia.ca/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Bromont.d10666-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Cruise > [MSC Cruises](https://www.expedia.ca/MSC-Cruises.cMS.Cruise-Line-Info) ### Activities > [Things to do in Pickering](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Pickering.d9546.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Banff National Park Information Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Banff-National-Park-Information-Centre-Downtown-District.d6072209.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Sint Maarten Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Sint-Maarten.d6143274.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Houston Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston.d178265.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Greece Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Greece.d67.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General > [Visit Mission](https://www.expedia.ca/Mission.dx57380)
