Festetics-Inkey Castle and Castle Park

The pride of the VILLABOGArT-Festetics-Inkey Castle Estate, the Festetics-Inkey Castle, currently under renovation, was built in the 1760s and converted into a castle around 1853 in the neoclassical style. The castle has two storeys, has recently been given a brand new roof and will be transformed from Sleeping Beauty’s dream into a castle hotel once the renovation is complete….The renovation of the castle grounds took three years, with the clearing of neglected areas, the planting of flowers and fruit trees, and the restoration of the tennis court – all based on old photographs and plans to honor the past. 

Segway: the first self-balancing means of transport designed to take you anywhere.

The Segway is fantastic because it can stay upright even though it only has two wheels side by side. Gyroscopes detect when it starts to tilt, the information is fed to a computer that controls the motor that drives the wheels in the right direction and at the right speed, and the scooter keeps its balance. Lots of units take care of safety, so you can enjoy the thrill of speeding up and down hillsides, all under the canopy of beautiful centuries-old ancient trees.
