25 Castles You Can Book on Airbnb: Loire Valley Châteaux, 15th-Century Venetian Homes, and Upstate New York Manors | Condé Nast Traveler

"It’s hard to believe this 10th-century Romanesque castle is just hiding away in Catalonia, waiting to be rented out. Spacious enough to accommodate 16 guests, the eight-bedroom property offers sweeping views of the mountainous Ripollès region. On the grounds, you’ll discover an homage tower (where vassals would perform oaths of loyalty to their lord), a parade ground (where troops would gather), a small cemetery, and a church dedicated to San Bartolomé. Eight different reviewers deemed it a “once-in-a-lifetime” experience—and you could be next." - Alex Erdekian, Jessica Sulima
