Dunrobin Castle

Dunrobin Castle

Dunrobin Castle and Gardens is the most northerly of Scotland’s great houses and is the largest in the Northern Highlands. It is a stately home in Sutherland and is the family seat of the Earl of Sutherland and the Clan Sutherland.

The castle is one of Britain’s oldest continuously inhabited houses and it dates back to the early 1300s. It resembles a French chateau in style and it was once used as a naval hospital during the First World War and as a boy’s boarding school from 1965 through to 1972.

Visitors can take a self-guided tour through the staterooms on the first floor before making their way through the smaller rooms in the older parts of the castle. You can also explore their formal garden and the Victorian museum. Throughout the season, visitors can enjoy displays of the ancient art of falconry. There are daily flying demonstrations on the castle lawn from April until the end of October.
