We booked the 2.5 hour clansman & castle freedom cruise. This tour departed from Clansman Harbour to cruise across the dark waters of Loch Ness and 1 hour exploration of the Urquhart Castle ruins site. Great adventure! 👍🏻

Scotland’s historic castle where you can take tours around the property to understand the architecture and history of Ancient Scotland. the audio guide tour was also helpful. The place was beautiful and serene with behind the back backdrop of Scottish highlands.

The Dark Castle was built in the 15th century for the then most powerful Crichtons in Scotland, in the small town of Blackness, in the north west of Edinburgh. The Dark Castle was used as a royal castle, building and armoury. In recent years, the castle has been restored and opened to the public. It has been a location for many well-known films, including Hamlet (1990), The Bruce (1996), BBC TV drama Ivanhoe (1997), and the science fiction film Doomsday (2008). The Dark Castle is also called the “Never-Going Boat” because it looks like a huge stone boat. From the castle you can enjoy the beautiful views of the bay around.

The secret Scottish fortress is located on the side of the road in B9131, 9 km southeast of St Andrews, and is a building left over from the Cold War. The fort was built to serve as an underground command and control centre in the UK and as a residence for the Scottish leaders at the time of the nuclear war. Now there are exhibits of objects from that time and World War II, and the atmosphere is somber.

Brody Castle (Broughty Castle) is located 6 km east of Dundee. The fortress is located by the sea and was built in 1495 for defense purposes. There is a small museum inside the fortress that houses oil paintings and war objects reflecting Dundee's development process. Broughty Castle located 6 kilometers east of Dundee, there is also a long sandy beach. This fortress is located by the sea and it is unattractive. It was built in 1495 for defense purposes. There is a small museum inside the fortress, famous for its best oil paintings in Scotland.

Although we have a Historic Environment Scotland membership, we love exploring these free locations too. Unstaffed and free to enter, it has a small car park (about 8 spaces) but there is a short, steepish path to the main gate. Once inside though, this barracks is a great historic gem. Thoroughly recommended.
