Description
Castell Coch is an enchanting mixture of Victorian Gothic fantasy and fairytale. It features rounded towers and turrets, and impressive murals depicting Aesop's fables.

Another of the 'Sham' castles, this fantasy Medieval castle was actually constructed near the end of the 19th century. A tremendous amount of detail was put into it by its creators, the third Marquess of Bute and William Burges. Rich decorations house the interior, including details of the saints, Aesop's fables and many animals.
