'simply heavenly' is the definition.
'celestial' can be an answer for 'heavenly' (synonyms). I'm unsure of the 'simply' bit.

'the spanish castle i wander round' is the wordplay.
'the spanish' becomes 'el' ('the' in Spanish).
'wander' indicates anagramming the letters.
'round' indicates putting letters inside.
'castle'+'i'='castlei'
'castlei' anagrammed gives 'cestial'.
'el' placed within 'cestial' is 'CELESTIAL'.

'is' acts as a link.
