Caerhays Castle, Grade I listed castle in St Michael Caerhays, England.
The castle stands on elevated ground with a 160-foot entrance facade made from local stone, overlooking Porthluney Cove on the English Channel.
Architect John Nash designed the castle between 1807 and 1810 for John Bettesworth, replacing an earlier manor house that belonged to the Trevanion family.
The Williams family has maintained residence in the castle since 1853, preserving its architectural features while managing the surrounding gardens and grounds.
Visitors can access the castle during spring months, with guided tours limited to groups of 15 people to protect the historical interiors.
The gardens contain over 600 plant varieties, including one of Britain's most extensive collections of magnolias recognized under the National Plant Collection scheme.
