Pleasant castle and nice walks in the surrounding countryside. Parts were closed for restoration but this was known in advance on their website. Info boards displayed and knowledgeable staff. Not as big as I was expecting but some great carvings and an unusual triangular shape. Also an exhibition and shop.

If you are in the area would recommend a visit. Grounds very well maintained and staff were really friendly (can't remember his name) but he was extremely knowledgeable and we had a lovely chat with him. As for the castle itself just really intriguing to look at so many interesting features. The condition and intricacies of the stonework are something I've not seen before in other castles. Really good value for money.

Managed to get parked at the visitor centre no problem. £6 entry, was a really enjoyable day having a look around, a few bits closed of for maintenance when I was there but still had lots to see, a 10 minute walk past the castle will take you to the foundations of the original castle as well. There is also a playpark for kids that get bored easily.

Probably one of the most unique castles I’ve visited. It’s a triangular shaped castle. Its history is fascinating and makes you appreciate what’s left of this wonderful place. An added bonus? The highlands cow’s rummaging in the near field. It’s a bit of a wiggly ride but it’s a hundred per cent worth a visit.

Great castle to visit if your ever in the area. Lovely grounds to walk around, you may even spot some deer and Highland cows. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable and there's a visitor centre with a refreshments counter serving ice cream tubs and hot and cold drinks. Plenty of parking and there's a picnic area too.
