Here're a few well written books about life in a mediaeval castle; two dealing with life in general, and the other about knights and armour:Life in a Medieval Castle by Joseph Gies and Frances Gies.
A well written serious study about life in a castle. ISBN: 006090674X
The medieval castle: life in a fortress in peace and war by Philip Warner. ASIN 0213764458
As above, but a little more detailed and nice illustrations.
Arms and Armor of the Medieval Knight by David Edge
This book is lavishly illustrated and includes acurate detailed descriptions that track the development of mediaeval armour and knighthood. ASIN 0517103192
For a lighter read, I'd recommend 'A Medieval Miscellany' too:
