A medieval baron had an estate called a barony, but it usually consisted of manors that were scattered through the country, and were not together. The baron could choose to live at any of the manors, and often barons would move from one to another fairly often so they could keep track of their estates personally.

Most medieval nobles lived in manor houses, and most manor houses were just large, well built houses we might call mansions. Some nobles lived in fortified manor houses, which were built rather like castles, to the modern eye. Barons, who were at a higher rank than most other nobles, were likely to own castles of their own. Those who did own castles were likely not to wish to live in them, because castles were not always built to provide comfortable living space.

A lord is generally a land owner who waches over a settlement. Often they occupy a favoured parcel of land, such as high on a hill above the 'peasants''.
