Siding

They have gotten most of the siding on. We had a hold up. I realized the vinyl shake he was thinking about putting up there was terrible looking and looked really cheap. So we started looking at other options. The fiber cement shakes were about $600 a square and dad said that was way too much. I found some vinyl shake that was made thicker and looked exactly like the fiber cement. Well I guess dad wasn't happy with that price either. He said something about just putting real cedar shakes up there, but I'm not sure what he has decided on. They still have to put the stone one the front porch and on the sides of the garage.

He has already put my faux beams in place to separate the siding from the rock along the porch.
The back is all siding.
The side of the house.
The other side.

The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...
