I went on a guided tour of Bannerman's and it is amazing. The only problem is that it's falling apart and they do not have enough money to keep fixing it up. Definitely a cool tour to take - just beware the poison ivy!

Wonderful old castle - under renovation of gardens and house - awsome site - great place for a weekend day tour - getting there by kayak is an experience in itself
