This is a castle you will never forget! The tall, stately building beckons you with the glow of its warm red sandstone. The setting is superb - fronted by a magnificent bay, surrounded by gardens and overlooked by the majestic mountain of Goatfell.
The castle was built on the site of a Viking fortress and part of it dates from the 13th century. The contents are magnificent and include superb silver, porcelain, paintings and sporting trophies.
