Castle Mona
Castle Mona is a former private residence later used as a hotel in Douglas, Isle of Man. The house was built between 1803 and 1804 for John Murray, 4th Duke of Atholl during his capacity as the Isle of Man's Governor General. Before 1850, Queen Victoria proposed buying it as a more suitable royal residence than Osborne House.
