gerisullivanIf you're in need of a fine fantasy, or dozens of them, the Landmark Holidays page at The Landmark Trust is a mighty fine place to spin up a basketful.
Castles certainly hold their appeal, but I find I'm even more charmed by the idea of holding a micro-con at Fort Clonque on Alderney, one of the Channel Islands. It sleeps 13, in rooms spread out throughout the fort so there's ample elbow room. Yes, there's the small matter of getting there. After that, with the full complement of 13, a 4 night stay is a mere £76 quid/person. For our very own fort! That's based on prices a year from now; they vary according to season.
It doesn't appear to come with any cannons. We'd have to bring our own.
