Question #13

"I'm situated in a place of great beauty. When visiting me you won't have to worry about dodging arrows fired by medieval knights, although you may have to be on the lookout for eagles and the bogey man. What castle am I and can you explain my riddle?"

Yes, the correct answer is PENNARD CASTLE!

Pennard overlooks Three Cliff's Bay on the Gower Peninsula in south Wales, Britain's first designated area of outstanding natural beauty. One of the main approaches to the castle is across a golf course, where you'll always find eagles, bogeys, and birdies too! Only the shell of the castle survives today, including an impressive stretch of curtain wall perched above a high cliff. The views of the bay from the castle and surrounds are stunning. And watch out for those wild ponies!
