Thank you! There were so many castles, and the majority are privately owned, including that one! The owners are kind enough to let people visit, and a few weeks out of the year they use it as a family vacation home.

Very nice photos, I like how you got a different perespective of Eilean Donan castle too.

As an Edinburgh native its nice to see tourists venture past the city centre as the country has alot to offer.

Glad you enjoyed your stay.

The thing that struck me was, much like the rest of Europe, how dirty Scotland is. Not just all the trash and wrappers in the streets but all the grime on the buildings and structures there. I suppose it's from all the years of burning coal before scrubbers.

Yep, nice Images but you do need to come back ... and venture further North

Thanks! It's very hard to manage different perspectives at times

I didn't see much trash at all, but yes the buildings are all dirty from the ages of wood and coal burning in the city. Very few can be washed since the stone is quite soft. I think it gives the city a very gothic feel.
