Our Best Western room in San Simeon

Yes, it was right on the beach

We did a tour of Hurst Castle

Lovely view isnt it? You had to get a shuttle bus up to the property. Lord it was hot up there.

Beautiful, its real marble.

The outdoor poor. Shallow because most people back then could not swim.

The gardens were gorgeous

I loved it. The story of how it was built is great as well.

I say give em a break. Yeah they cut some corners and did a few dodgey things, but to the untrained eye its lovely.

Your not allowed to use a flash inside, thus the reason this is blury.

My favourite. The indoor dive pool.

The natural landscape.

David, being an engineer was unimpressed with the architecture and construction.

Its the main dining hall.

Every individual tile placed by hand. Swum in by very few. Fantastic.
