So how often can you say you spent the night in a castle's turret? Enter our 1 bedroom bottom floor garden suite through the tower at the base of the historic Layton Castle. Comfortable queen size bed, newly replaced oak wood floors, curved fanlight window, high ceilings, views of the garden full, ...beautiful and peaceful, gated. Newly renovated with modern bathroom & kitchen. Washer & dryer, dishwasher. Wander the historic grounds, swing in the old bench swing under the live oak and read a book, drink a glass of wine.

About the host
Hosted by Pam
Welcome to Layton Castle, a grand estate on the Ouachita River. To learn more about this historic place, go to laytoncastle.com.
Besides long and short-term tenants, my husband and I live at the castle most of the year (we’re the 6th generation to live here), though we spend summer months in Utah when possible. We have staff on the grounds most days and we are a call or text away if you need something.
We do monthly public tours of the historic family floor October - May, and private/custom tours when requested (8 person minimum). We love sharing the history of Layton Castle! We have occasional weddings and events on the grounds as well.
You are welcome to wander the grounds, hang out on the patio furniture, swing in the swing. Make a flower arrangement - you’ll find a vase in your apt : ).
