FOUR MORE SEASIDE RUINS
CASTLE TIORAM, LOCHABER
This small but romantic ruin sits on the tidal island of Eilean Tioram in Loch Moidart, Scotland. Take your binoculars and keep your eyes peeled for common seals, otters and golden and white-tailed eagles.
DUNLUCE CASTLE, COUNTY ANTRIM
Fans of Game of Thrones will instantly recognise the turreted ruins of Dunluce as the House of Greyjoy. This atmospheric castle is perched dramatically on a basalt cliff top high above the north coast.
BAMBURGH CASTLE, NORTHUMBERLAND
The immense castle walls of Bamburgh seem to grow from the coastal dunes and great whin sill rock of Budle Bay. It’s a formidable sight from every aspect and a favourite with landscape photographers.
DUNNOTTAR CASTLE, ABERDEENSHIRE
This romantic and haunting ruin is perched on a rocky headland on Scotland’s northeast coast. The castle is rich in history and was once the home of one of the most powerful families in Scotland – the Earls Marischal.
