'Stands apart... This Englishman's castle might have started as a dream, but it has ended up being an extraordinary reality' Sunday Times Walking in the Pyrenees one spring morning Matthew Parris stumbled upon a magnificent ruined mansion standing on the edge of a line of huge cliffs. Later he was to discover that parts of the house dated back to the 14th century though it had not been completed until 1559; and that it had survived two massive earthquakes before falling into disrepair in the early 1960s. A few years later, seduced by 'one of those foolish challenges that grip us in middle life', Parris bought the house, L'Avenc, and set about restoring it to its full glory. This delightful book chronicles it all: the original discovery, the attempts to discover its history, and then the long effortful years trying to bring it back to life in the face of scepticism from family, friends and Spanish neighbours. The original edition of A Castle in Spain was published in 2005 when the renovations were a work in progress; this new edition triumphantly records all that has happened since.

Excerpt from My Real Castles in Spain The thirteenth day of March, 1907, was a busy day for me. There seemed a thousand and one things to do, and which to do first was a conundrum that many a girl, who on the morrow is to face in reality one of the dreams of her life, finds it hard to answer. Yes, the wish that I might some day go abroad was actually coming true. I was going, and all the fairy castles I had built for years were to become realities, for I was going to spain.
