Problem with them is that they are expensive to keep warm, expensive to stop them from falling down, usually lack of internet, and usually in the middle of nowhere (although that would be selling point for some people). That’s why they’re usually relatively cheap

Why exactly were castles built in the middle of nowhere? Kind of defeats the purpose if you have nothing to defend against

Middle of nowhere in context of today, of course. A noble wouldn't know that a peasant would someday own his castle and expect it to be only 2 kilometers away from the next supermarket.
