Castles

Brodie nr. Forres Moray	Now owned by the National Trust for Scotland this castle was the home of the Brodie clan. Its contents and grounds are an uplifting experience.
Dunrobin Golspie Sutherland	This fairy-tale castle in a magical setting on the north west coast of the Moray Firth is a wonderful place to visit. Don't miss the Falconry demonstrations! The page is on my gardening site and has some general information about visiting the castle.
Cawdor Nairn Nairnshire	Dating from the 14th Century this beautiful castle is steeped in history and legend. A wonderful example of the development of a castle through the ages.
Fort George Ardersier Inverness-shire	Built to supress the Highlanders after Culloden, this fort is a superb example of Georgian military architecture.
