The Samuel Taylor Suit Cottage, also known as the Berkeley Castle or Berkeley Springs Castle, is located on a hill above Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. The castle-like house was built for Colonel Samuel Taylor Suit of Washington, D.C. as a personal retreat near the spa town, beginning in 1885. It was not complete by the time of his death in 1888 and was finished in the early 1890s for his young widow, Rosa Pelham Suit, whom Suit had first met at Berkeley Springs, and their three children. The post 1888 work is of noticeably inferior quality.

| - La casa de campo Samuel Taylor Suit, también conocido castillo Berkeley, es una edificación ubicada en una colina sobre Bath (Virginia Occidental), Estados Unidos. La casa con forma de castillo fue construida a mediados de 1885 para el coronel, magnate y hombre de negocios Samuel Taylor Suit, oriundo de Washington D. C., como un sitio turístico y de descanso personal cerca de la ciudad. La edificación no estaba completa en el momento de su muerte, en 1888, pero fue terminada a principios de la década de 1890 para su joven viuda, Rosa Pelham Suit, a quien Suit conoció en Berkeley Springs y sus tres hijos.

| - La casa de campo Samuel Taylor Suit, también conocido castillo Berkeley, es una edificación ubicada en una colina sobre Bath (Virginia Occidental), Estados Unidos. La casa con forma de castillo fue construida a mediados de 1885 para el coronel, magnate y hombre de negocios Samuel Taylor Suit, oriundo de Washington D. C., como un sitio turístico y de descanso personal cerca de la ciudad. La edificación no estaba completa en el momento de su muerte, en 1888, pero fue terminada a principios de la década de 1890 para su joven viuda, Rosa Pelham Suit, a quien Suit conoció en Berkeley Springs y sus tres hijos. El interior de quince habitaciones cuenta con un salón de baile de 50 pies (15,2 metros) de ancho y 40 pies (12,2 metros) de largo. El diseño se atribuye al arquitecto de Washington Alfred B. Mullett, quien supuestamente dibujó un boceto sobre un mantel en el Hotel Berkeley Springs. El diseño puede haberse basado en elementos del castillo de Berkeley en Gloucestershire, Reino Unido. El diseño detallado y la supervisión de la construcción estuvieron a cargo de Snowden Ashford, quien diseñó el Mercado del Este de Washington, fue aprendiz de Mullett y también se le acredita como arquitecto. La señora Suit disfrutó de la casa hasta que se le acabó el dinero y la propiedad se vendió en 1913. Esta edificación es una residencia privada y solo se puede acceder a través del alquiler, siempre y cuando sea utilizada para realizar eventos sociales. Tampoco está permitido el acceso al público.

The post 1888 work is of noticeably inferior quality. The fifteen-room interior features a ballroom 50 feet (15.2 m) wide and 40 ft (12.2 m) long. The design is attributed to Washington architect Alfred B. Mullett, who is alleged to have drawn a rough sketch of the plan on a tablecloth at the Berkeley Springs Hotel. The design may have been based on elements of Berkeley Castle in Gloucestershire, United Kingdom. Detailed design and construction supervision was carried out by Snowden Ashford, who designed Washington's Eastern Market, apprenticed for Mullett and is also credited as an architect. Mrs. Suit entertained lavishly at the house until her money ran out and the property was sold in 1913. (en)
