A Victorian fairytale castle overlooking the Devon coastline has gone on the market for an undisclosed sum. Watermouth Castle, near Ilfracombe, has been run by the same owners for 45 years and is billed as one of the top tourist destinations in the county. Situated by Watermouth Harbour - once a haven for smugglers - the Grade II* Listed Castle is situated in a stunning position with breath-taking views. The building was erected in the mid-19th century and is not a true castle, but a country house built to look like one, according to its listing with Savills. It is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty between Ilfracombe and Combe Martin. (Daily Mail)
