Ever fancied being king or queen of your own castle? A rare opportunity has come up to do just that.
A two-bedroom ground-floor apartment has gone up for grabs at Clyne Castle in Mill Lane in Blackpill in Swansea meaning your next move could see you take up residency in the 1791 Grade II-listed landmark, which was built by prestigious and wealthy landowner Richard Phillips.
The castle and its extensive 52-acre grounds were bought by the affluent Vivian family in the 1860s and during their period of residency the castle played host to many distinguished guests – believed to include Queen Victoria, Winston Churchill, King Edward VIII to name just a few. It was then converted into luxury apartments in 2003.
