There was a movie featuring a castle. In the movie it was called Graystone or Greystone castle. A real castle was used, but renamed for the movie. Does anyone know which castle was used?

The movie I believe had something to do with Tarzan of the Apes.

I think you're after the movie "Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes" from 1984. The great movie website www.imdb.com listed two filming locations:
- Floors Castle in Scotland and
- Hatfield House in England.
If you search for these buildings on a search engine like www.google.com you'll find several sites with pics and info. But here are two links for good measure; one for each building.
For Floors Castle: http://www.camelot-intl.com/heritage/castles/scotland/floors_castle/ .
For Hatfield House: http://www.camelot-intl.com/heritage/historichouses/south_east/hatfield.html .
Hatfield House, by the way, has also been a filming location for "The Avengers"-, "Batman"- and "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider"-movies.
