Beeeeauuuutiful, Lady Trueheart! Wonderful idea for a thread

But where is Camelot?! Perhaps I missed it as my phone didn't load the whole page.

I still love these photos of the historical, fairytale gothic 'Corvin Castle' in Transylvania, where Ghost Rider has been filming!

fantastical Lady Trueheart... All those turrets!

It has been several years since visiting the real Camelot in the beautiful mystical Tintagel, Cornwall in my country...

Notice Merlin's Cave?!

I love castles they have so much charachter and the ones you have pictured on here are lovely i have been around a lot of the ones in the uk and the old period homes i think are so much better than the newer homes today they definatly knew how to design there homes back then . i love the really old style furnishings and dark beams they all are great little features .I love the ones in wales some are ruins but they are still amazing especially Baumaris ( hope that how its spelt) its a great day going around that castle . we go every year and camp nearby.

I would love to have a castle like Midford its such a amazing castle its very different in its style and even though it needs renovation i think its a great shame that nic was unable to follow his plans on that one , you never know he may go back and pursue it in the future if he loved it that much . i bet it was a hard decision to let it go with it being so beautiful.

It would be an amazing place to call home as well .

My dh went to Mont St Michel when he was in France and took lots of pictures. It is very beautiful,  I would love to walk through those ancient gardens someday. I do hope to go to Tintagel someday too.

I do love houses with history and awesome details like stone and beams too. But I also like really clean modern styles too. Lots of windows and light, uncluttered, seems so beautiful to me. A Zen feeling about it.

Oh, thanks, Lula, that is a great interview too! Do we have that in the library?

We have caves here in NS you can visit, sounds similar to Merlins Cave, very treacherous to climb down to, and very spooky sounds indeed can be heard! I better get to Tintagel before I need a walker to get around, lol!

Oooh, good sites, Lula, thanks! Love stuff like that!

I think the archives is a good idea too.

Are there many stone circles in Britain? I remember reading about one in a P.D. James book , not sure where it was set now. Yes, ruins really speak to me too, we don't have ancient ones here of course, although there are some sites that go back to early settlements like the 1700's, Vikings and French, mostly. But also places, sometimes standing by a river or in a forest and feeling some kind of energy, and wondering about early native Canadians who made homes there, canoed down those rivers. Very immense feelings of connectiveness.

These are cool, Lula! I can spend a lot of time looking at these sites, thanks. I had no idea there were so many, I have never looked into it at all. Amazing really, and barrows too! I remember being scared to death reading about the barrows in The Hobbit. Where is tha big white chalk horse I saw in a movie somewhere, is that in Glastonbury area? I remember wondering if it was real, it was so awesome looking.
