Now in ruins, yet still stunning. Situated on a cliffs overlooking Bass Rock, offering excellent views and photo opportunities. Staff at the entrance/shop were great and full of information.

As we approached the castle ruins, it was a breathtaking site! The walls that are still standing give an understanding of what this fortified sea castle must once have been.

This is one the most beautifully located castle. The stunning location – on a high cliff edge overlooking the Firth of Forth and the Bass Rock. Visit to this castle was not on our hectic Iternary but we were glad that we saw this castle.
