Zpráva od Tom & Laura

Often compared to a Disney castle - make sure to stop off here when traveling on the NC500 or this part of Scotland. You can view the castle from the beach for free, but to really enjoy it pay for entry to the house and gardens and set aside the time to take it all in.

Some history:

Dunrobin Castle and Gardens is a stately home in Scotland's Highlands area that serves as the family seat of the Earl of Sutherland and the Clan Sutherland. It has an eventful history, first being mentioned in 1401, surviving a siege in 1518, and eventually being remodelled into its current Scottish Baronial style by Sir Charles Barry between 1835 and 1850. The castle holds 189 rooms, making it the largest in the northern Highlands, and its elegant interior features friezes, spiral staircases, and significant artworks. Its spectacular gardens, completed in 1850, were inspired by the French formal style of the Gardens of Versailles and feature parterres arranged around circular pools and fountains. The grounds also house a museum with trophy heads from hunting expeditions and archaeological artefacts, which are open to visitors between April and October each year.
