Start your search by heading to Peerspace and inputting the kind of event or gathering you’re planning in the search bar and the location where you will be having it. You also have the option to include the date when you’re planning this event.

After you make that preliminary search, the next step is to narrow your search down so that your only results are castles. To do that, click “More filters” and enter “castle” in the keyword section, then resubmit your search.

At this point, you can also narrow your search down quite a bit more, as well as broaden the geographical area of your search by zooming out on the map on the search results page.

Depending on what criteria are absolute essentials for your chosen venue, additional search filters you might want to use include:

  • Included outdoor spaces like a backyard, beach, desert, or garden
  • Included interior spaces like a bathroom, bedroom, or dining area
  • Production equipment such as a cyclorama or a green screen
  • Style of the space
  • Type of space
  • Instant booking availability
  • Amenities like a deck, elevator, exposed brick, fireplace, etc.

Now your search results are as limited and specific as you’d like them to be. The next step is to start looking at each of the listings to decide which ones would be suitable for whatever you’re planning.

Ahead, we’ll share a couple of examples of the castles you rent for a night on Peerspace.

Historic castle recording studio in Franklin, TN

We’ll start with the fascinating history of this location: it was built by a Chicago mobster almost a century ago, and has since been “an underground casino, speakeasy, high-end restaurant, riding academy, residence.” Since 1983, though, it’s been a recording studio, but it’s equally suitable for lots of other purposes, from parties to productions.

It’s situated on 32 acres of land consisting “of sprawling grass fields and a cedar forest creeping up a limestone hill in the back.” Inside the castle, there’s the main tracking room, the piano room, the “stone” room, a control room, and a full kitchen and lounge.

There are a bunch of positive reviews, but we’ll simply quote one reviewer who had a birthday party here: “This space was absolutely incredible! From the exterior to the interior. The space was perfectly sized for our group and everyone commented on the beauty of the building. Lance and his team were so great to work with. They were extremely helpful and responsive to all my questions. Their efforts made the event run smoothly. Will definitely have another event here!”

There’s also a lush backyard area, a baby grand piano, a balcony, a grand staircase, a pool table, and many more fantastic amenities. Plus, it’s situated right in downtown St. Augustine, so you’re conveniently located near everything you might need, like entertainment and fine dining.
