Stayed at the CUTEST guest house where the old couple made us a brekkie (breakfast)
fit for a king! Then a long hike up the hill (a white hill, by the way) and tooled around the castle for several hours.
Interesting fact: The castle was built over 1000 years ago but was put to use in WWII - secret tunnels were dug underground - over 4miles worth! - to house a hospital and communication center for the British army/navy! Over 400 servicemen/women lived and worked in these underground rooms and even Churchill hung out there from time to time. VERY cool to see.
