See the castle where Game of Thrones star Rose Leslie grew up
Game of Thrones fans have known for years that Rose Leslie — who played the fierce wildling warrior Ygritte — grew up in a castle in Scotland -- Lickleyhead Castle in Aberdeenshire to be precise -- but she's getting renewed attention thanks to a viral Reddit post that highlights the homes of various celebrities, whether they be humble or...well, a castle.
Lickleyhead Castle was in Leslie's family since the 15th century. It's got eight bedrooms and eight bathrooms. Take a look:

We know how many bedrooms and bathrooms the place has because is now available to rent out on AirbnB. Lickleyhead Castle hasn't been in Leslie's family since 2018. Although given that Leslie is now a famous actor, she may be able to buy it back if she wanted to.
After Game of Thrones, Leslie had roles on shows like The Good Fight and The Time Traveler's Wife. She also married her Game of Thrones costar Kit Harington, who played Ygritte's love interest Jon Snow. The couple has two children. A family of four could have space to spare in a place like Lickleyhead Castle.
Leslie will next appear in a four-part miniseries called Miss Austen, about the life of author Jane Austen, although Leslie isn't playing Jane herself.
Next. Rory McCann. Before Game of Thrones, Rory McCann (the Hound) was living in a tent and "stealing food". dark
