Carr Hall Castle is owned by Leeds' entrepreneurs Terry George and Michael Rothwell. It's situated in a secluded, wooded valley, adjacent to a deer park, a short drive away from the town of Halifax in Yorkshire. It was bought by Terry and Michael in 2002 after falling in love with it the minute they drove up the drive.

Terry and Michael spent the next 4 years toiling over the renovations, spending almost £1 million transforming it, with the interior designed by Ben Huckerby ( of Ben Huckerby Design). Ben says "I recommended taking the walls back to the original brickwork and creating an opulent look with deep colours, dark wood and highly textured fabrics."

The castle was the winner of Channel 5's I Own Britain's Best Home. Voted for by the public, it beat off stiff competition from 26 other luxury homes around the UK, including a stately home and a converted water mill to win the coveted title. Apparently, even the binmen who collect the refuse from the castle voted for it!

Set in 12 acres of lush land, there's an outside courtyard with barbeque area and a lake with a rowing boat.
