This isn’t a castle built for war… it was built to impress. 📍 Bolsover Castle, Derbyshire Perched high above the Vale of Scarsdale, Bolsover looks medieval… but it’s actually a 1600s power statement. Sir Charles Cavendish transformed this hilltop stronghold into a lavish “Little Castle” designed for entertaining, status, and spectacle — packed with bold rooms, mythological symbolism, and royal-level ambition. Even today, it feels like a place made to be seen from every angle. Follow @xploreheri
