Located on the border between Warwickshire and the Cotswolds, Molly's Lodge was formerly a gatehouse to the Weston Park estate, but now is part of its own miniature property. For £550,000 you can purchase not only the mini castle itself, but half an acre of land, landscaped gardens and an extra timber building called Molly's Mews.

The castle itself boasts an interior space of 73 square metres, which includes a living room with a large stone fireplace, a spiral staircase, modern kitchen and entrance hall with the original front door. Molly's Mews offers extra space in the form of an annexe, home office, garage and two car ports. The mature garden features a formal lawn, an ornamental pond, cottage garden, chicken run, greenhouse, herbaceous border and a small orchard - basically a dream country garden.
