About the Space
Welcome to our magical pocket dimension! Our hilltop Chateau-Castle sits atop a ridge at the end of a long winding private drive which blends majestically into the peaceful, private setting complimented by stunning views of the lower Hudson Valley mountains. Once you pass through the Gothic entry gates, flaming braziers welcome you across the drawbridge as you enter another world. Unique features include a Medieval-inspired tavern with hand-hewn beams, custom stained-glass windows, wide board floors, gothic furniture and a massive stone cooking fireplace. All bedrooms reflect the owners love of elegant history and passion for inspired epic fantasy settings. A custom, curved staircase leads to a spacious light-filled living room and mountain views out the leaded glass windows. Our property includes a library, castle tower, spiral stone staircase with arrow slits, gothic chapel dining room, secret door bookcase, spiked door, Greco/Roman inspired solarium, and countless intriguing spaces inside and out w/historic architectural elements and antiques. Outbuildings include a Pennsylvania style 2 1/2 story barn, Stone yeoman hut with cedar shingles, garden shed and large octangular Victorian gazebo encircled by 30+ year old Rhododendrons. A custom shield-shaped pool is surrounded by mature cottage gardens and a breathtaking gothic/Victorian iron fence. The house boasts established and meticulously maintained formal and perennial gardens, each with their own unique characteristics. At the end of a long formal path, sits a one of a kind ruined stone folly archway which frames a 6’ tall Pan statue terminus. Other garden areas include a shade garden with pond and gothic benches, a metal Victorian fountain pond, an herb garden, and more. The castle sits on 11.5 acres with woodland paths and wonderous elm tree Ent named Lowfrond who guards the forest. Magnificent!

12 reviews- booked a filming
We completed a 2 day shoot in November for my feature film, Trip to the Moon, and Rob and Mabelyn were super helpful. Right from the moment they greeted us as we drove in, I could tell they genuinely cared about our project and about us as guests. Anything we needed, they were right there to accommodate. If you need a unique steampunk/fantasy historical setting, then their home is the perfect place. Highly recommended. Would definitely book again.

Mabe and Rob were a delight to work with from the initial enquiry all the way through a busy (and unusual!) shoot day. They helped us out with a lot of random and sometimes last minute requests and were extremely accommodating, understanding and supportive. Very generous, friendly and kind people - and a beautiful property! - would highly highly recommend.
- booked a photo shoot
Rob and Mabe were so kind and generous and helpful: our production was a little complicated and Rob was patient and empathetic throughout the whole process. On the day of the shoot he and Mabe were the perfect hosts: they showed us the ropes, gave us some guidelines and disappeared until checking in with us halfway through. They were attentive without being intrusive. And the house! The love and care they pour into this very special property is truly lovely. I cannot recommend them highly enough. It's a fabulous unique location stewarded by two fabulous and unique people!
- booked a birthday party
Could not recommend this castle enough. An amazing beautiful, and spacious property with wonderful hosts. Rob and Mabe were so attentive, hospitable, and kind. The inside of the home is straight out of a fantasy story. It truly feels like you’re in a book or movie as soon as you walk in. My party and I had such a memorable night!
- booked a photo shoot
The natural beauty that surrounds this location is simply breathtaking. However, what truly sets this place apart is the warmth and kindness of their hosts.
