So here we all are at Herst Castle (which is absolutely amazing to see!) This is the view to the ocean from one of the patios (if you can really just call them patios 'cause they are so huge!).
This is the pool outside that originally was smaller and was added on to. You can't see the two waterfalls that come into this pool. This pool was very enticing, you just wanted to jump in!
Here's the indoor pool and every inch of this room and pool are covered in tiny mosaic tiles. Half of which were gold leafed. Just amazing!!
This is the main house (there are 3 guest houses too) and we only saw a small portion of it. It was just huge and incredible inside. Many of the ceilings were imported from other palaces and castles and everywhere were beautiful art and statues.
The garden alone at the castle could've had its own tour. It was beautiful! Since the castle was built they've planted over 70,000 trees. Yes that's the right amount of zeroes!

It's about time you put some pics on here! Of course, I can't say much because I've only posted 2 times in May :) It looks like so much fun though! I'm ready for a getaway, but who can afford to go anywhere with the gas prices?!? EEK!
