The century-old castle with a cliffside infinity pool at Naked Heart Castle, Moganshan

📍Century-old Castle & Cliffside Infinity Pool·Naked Heart Castle Moganshan 🕌Naked Heart Castle was opened in 2017 📍Located in Moganshan, the hotel is situated on the mountaintop 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿It is a transformation of a Scottish castle from 1910, where you can experience the refinement of modern Europe 🏤Environment: Simply amazing, the mountain road leads all the way to the top, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding hills. The century-old castle (built by Scottish missionaries in 1910) and the cliffside pool are very atmospheric. 🌟Service: Five-star praise, with the butler contacting before check-in and adding WeChat. The staff are friendly and enthusiastic, and the solutions they provide to problems are reasonable. 🌟Hotel Facilities: The booked Pastoral Residence was upgraded to a Cliff View Suite, which is a cabin built on the cliff. The room is large and comfortable with good privacy, allowing you to enjoy the view of Moganshan while bathing. The interior of the castle is beautiful, with a reception room, wine cellar, reading room, and the view from the outdoor terrace is also great. 🍱Dining: Naked Heart Taste is the breakfast restaurant (images 3-4), with limited food choices but a fantastic view. The corner spot facing the castle and mountains is recommended, what you eat becomes unimportant. Dinner at the Battery Tower was just okay, the presentation outshone the food itself, and the value for money was slightly low. 🌟Entertainment: Stayed for three days and two nights, and it was definitely not boring. You can swim in the infinity pool (temperature-controlled in winter), explore the castle, enjoy the view from the balcony, or play darts/ping-pong/pool in the activity room, and you can also sign up for various hotel activities such as hiking/mountain biking/craft making. In addition, Naked Heart Valley and Naked Heart Castle share facilities, so you can go down to Naked Heart Valley for horse riding, fishing, and archery ❗️❗️The Cliff View Room has poor sound insulation due to structural issues, and it was a bit overwhelming when encountering noisy drunk guests at night. However, the hotel's resolution was swift and efficient. Also, the music played by the hotel is quite speechless, mainly KTV love song hits and quite loud, which is a bit of a letdown ✅Some suggestions: The two restaurants at the foot of the mountain (Goldfish Mama and Yiyuan Organic Farm Restaurant) are both very good, clean, and delicious. It's about a 20-30 minute drive from the hotel. ✅The hotel has a hiking trail that goes over the Hundred Steps Ridge and follows the road to Jinmao Tianlai, where you can enjoy a panoramic view of Naked Heart Castle, about a 20-minute walk (involving climbing 400 steps). The hotel offers rental of aristocratic costumes, which should be great for taking beautiful photos in the castle, or you can bring your own formal dress, as every corner is photogenic. 🔗How to choose between Naked Heart Castle and Naked Heart Valley? Naked Heart Castle is more suitable for couples seeking tranquility, while Naked Heart Valley is more suitable for family and children, with more activities. 🔗How to choose a room type at Naked Heart Castle? Personally, I think the Cliff View Suite is better. The Pastoral Residence is less than 30 square meters and can feel cramped, and the Castle Suite has a bit of a strange style, suitable for those who like something quirky and are not short on money. 🔗What is the best season to visit? Moganshan is suitable for all seasons, but summer is more lush, winter is slightly bleak, with heavy fog. The weather in the mountains is unpredictable, with sunshine, snow, and fog all possible
