Scotland's castles are spread the length and breadth of the land and range from remote and austere tumbledown relics in far-flung glens to magnificent, hilltop fortresses which have withstood all that nature and man has thrown against them.
This handy pocket guide is specifically designed as an easy-to-follow reference to those castles which can in some way accommodate visitors wanting to know a little more about them.
Set out on a regional basis, every castle carries full details regarding location, map references, facilities on offer, ownership status and telephone number. Opening hours and entry fees are also included along with a brief historical background.
This is an essential and comprehensible guide book which all lovers of Scotland should have.
The book comes complete with a full colour illustration of each castle.
