The bedroom in this one looks like an optical illusion.

You'd go to bed with a headache and wake up with one in that room!

pic5 American tartan? Do they really think we came out of our caves every summer to make sure our fashions didn't clash?

The price is silly too. My great uncle's castle went for £500 in 1963.
Now the deja vu misery is closer to terminal :(:(

Apologies for bumping, but that tower block on stilts is Grade 2 listed!
Though it's downhill otherwise:

http://www.echo-news.co.uk/news/10229783.One_arrested_and_one_fined_as_police_raid_Brooke_House/?ref=ar
Acting at the same time, four teams of officers simultaneously bashed down the doors of flats on floors two, three, five and eight.
In two of the flats they found cannabis, leading one man to be arrested and another to be given an £80 on-the-spot fine.
The move came just months after a blitz on drug-related activity and anti-social behaviour at the tower block last Summer, which saw 80 needles cleared up from the underground car park area in just one night.

http://www.echo-news.co.uk/news/local_news/10107670.Brooke_House_could_be_the_next_Basildon_hotel/
A TROUBLED Basildon tower block could be turned into a hotel as part of large-scale changes to the listed-building.
The Deputy leader of Basildon Council and leader of landlord services Phil Turner say the flats at Brooke House could be turned into hotel rooms with the lower floors being turned into a large, glass-windowed atrium, with concierges and shops for those staying there.
He wants to create a top hotel feel when people walk into the grade-II listed building and said he would not be raising the issue if he didn’t think it was possible, while knocking the building down would be considered if possible
