Referred to as the "castle in the clouds," 430 Hawkins Hill Road sits on a hill, isolated in the bush, overlooking Wellington. The site was originally a decommissioned Airways Corporation radar bunker until Brian Willman purchased the property in 1998 with the intention of building a conference center. For years, executives and business folk visited the castle until Willman wanted a lifestyle change. Willman opened Woofington's in 2016, branded as a luxury dog hotel.

A series of incidents connected to Woofington's fueled rumors among locals, deepening the mystery of the castle. In 2018, Woofington's manager went missing and was later found dead. A burglary and arrest occurred on the property in 2019 followed by a police raid in 2020.

Woofington's is no longer operational but the castle is a common sight to hikers traversing the Hawkin's Ridge Trail. The area contains other quirky sights, such as the Hawkins Hill Radar Dome, ostriches, and windmills.
