Fantastic wa der through the history of this rescued castle. Being able to touch walls and open doors (most of them) was such an immersive experience compared to other castles making it that little bit more special. Welcoming staff, lovely grounds and personal effects provided by the Menzies Trust made our visit.

We were looking forward to a good morning out and a spot of lunch but..... Unfortunately the coffee room was no longer open. So that cut our visit short and the walled garden was a bit of a disappointment so it cut the visit even shorter. However the castle was quite interesting and showed how you could sit on the fence during the Scottish Wars with the English. Nice location and well kept but not just not enough of an attraction to make it anything more than a passing visit.

Interesting relatively new castle with unusual architecture. The descendants are keen to keep the place open to the public while preserving its heritage and character. Will always need more care and efforts to keep it going, but it’s a really interesting hike to investigate inside. Very reasonable entry fee (£10/adult at the time of our visit) and the history explained throughout the castle is well worth a look.

Popped in here for a flying visit before returning home. The Castle building itself looks unassuming, but there were plenty of gems to be found inside, not least of which was the very cheerful young lady on the front desk (Steph?). There's still plenty of renovation going on, but delve a little deeper and the story broadens quickly. Here be links to Rob Roy, the Black Watch, Bonnie Prince Charlie and an Indian chap favoured by the Victorian royals. Can't remember the chap's name, but d'you know what, this place is still worth a visit, and shouldn't take more than a few hours out of your day. We didn't visit the beautiful walled garden, but that's our ready-made excuse to go back if we get the chance to.

There are lots of rooms you can access with very interesting artefacts and information in them all - and a wee tearoom as well. This castle is the real deal and well a visit. I would rate it amongst the best I have visited - and that's alot. Staff were great as well.

We decided to visit the castle on a very wet day, and had a thoroughly enjoyable visit. With 30 rooms to explore there really is a lot to see, from impressive displays to subtle interpretation. The Castle Manager, Scott, was manning the desk and was passionate about the building and the plans for it - good luck with the future! Recommended visit if in the area.
