Also known as Garside Grange Independent School, Garside Grange House is a beautiful red-brick building. It is the main setting of Young Dracula in series 3, 4 and 5.
Series 3 & 4
The school sign
Garside Grange has been turned into a school, with the Draculas living in the attic. Count Dracula hires a head teacher named Alexandra McCauley to manage the school. At the end of Series 4 the school is forced to close because of 'roof damage'. This was actually down to Elizabetta, the main villain of the series.
Series 5
Count Dracula decides to turn Garside Grange into a hotel. The plan backfires and the old building remains largely disused. After uncovering the Magister Maleficorum, Count Dracula and Renfield invite breather guests to view the house with the hope of selling it ("Open House").
