A man's home is his castle, unless his home is a castle, in which case a man's castle is his castle. Today's Groupon gives the stress-besieged a castle-home away from their home-castle just in time for spring. For $99, you get a one-night stay at Castle Hill Resort and Spa (an up to a $299 value) in Cavendish, Vermont (a mere three hours from Boston). Depending on availability, patrons can stay in either a queen castle room or a resort home suite. Additionally, if you spend $100 or more at Castle Hill’s restaurant, you'll receive $25 off your bill.

Situated near Ludlow and surrounded by Vermont’s scenic Green Mountains, Castle Hill Resort and Spa's exquisite lodgings offer elegant amenities, fetching gardens, spa services, and gourmet dining fit for royalty and even soap-opera stars. Visitors can pamper themselves in period-styled rooms and charming resort homes furnished with private baths, cable TV, decorative fireplaces, and shoe-polish-dispensing robot butlers. A ton of outdoor activities let patrons enjoy the spring weather with golf, horseback riding, hiking, fly-fishing, and swimming in a heated pool. And if it rains, you can relax in the hot tub, melt under a hot-stone massage at the Aveda Concept Spa in Castle Hill's carriage house, take in a yoga class in the solarium, or solve murder mysteries in the library. By the time you head home, you'll have shed the stress and skin grime accumulated after months of abrasive winter weather and wrestling bouts with subway-dwelling crocodiles.

Weekend getaways to a boss’s beachside pad seem like a good idea until he bites the dust and forces you to spend the rest of the weekend partying with his corpse. Today's Groupon to Castle Hill Resort and Spa ensures a more relaxing respite amid gorgeous confines and peaceful, natural landscapes. Call ahead to reserve your room.

This deal does not include a tax of $8.91 to be paid at the hotel.

Reviews

TripAdvisors give Castle Hill Resort and Spa 3.5 stars:

• The hotel is really old, but very well kept. We didn't hear any of our neighbors, and the spa and pool area are incredible! I've stayed in some fancy hotels, but the experience of staying in The Castle is one I won't soon forget. Beautiful, well kept, and the staff was beyond friendly. – CTPSSUN
• It is exactly like getting to live in another time. Everything is period. You feel like you are touring a historical home, but you get to actually sit on the furniture and have cocktails before dinner in the library. The service is great. The restaurant is delicious; it is a wonderful escape. – TrizBiz
