What is the Castle of Kingston?
Located in Cartersville, Georgia, the Castle of Kingston is a brand new castle that you can actually stay in… just a stone’s throw from Atlanta! This magical castle has been in the works for the past several years, with construction officially completing this year, in 2025.
The creators of the Castle at Kingston say,
The inspiration for many of the features came from popular movies and media that have depicted castles of all time periods. It is our hope that each guest will fall in love with the childlike wonder that accompanies an experience as unique as this one. We wanted it to have the charm of the old world, while still being equipped with modern luxuries and conveniences. We built this for every little girl that pretended to be a princess growing up, for every little boy who dreamed of finding lost treasure and every couple who longed to see the castles of Europe without having to fly across the Atlantic Ocean.
Guests at the Castle can expect spiral staircases, arched doorways, stained-glass windows, and even a drawbridge and throne!
