I have a slight obsession with castles therefore this book is perfect for me to plan my next break in Scotland!

An excellent, concise book providing basic information on castles in Scotland. It doesn't have them all, but the vast majority making it easy to plan a castle trip across the country.

Information provided includes basic background, contact information for visitors, and what type of castle it is.

Handy guide to use in conjunction with a map to plan a fun road trip!

This is amazing book with information about all 140 of Scotland's castle. Each entry is accompanied by a gorgeous colour picture of the castle and a wealth of information as to its historical providence, architectural history and uses up until the modern day if applicable. A must for castle fans or those planning on visiting these magnificent wonders of Scotland.

Good little informative book about castles in Scotland. There is enough facts about each castle which gives a good overview of time period and style. Having enjoyed many a happy holiday in Scotland visiting castles this gave me ideas of new places to visit.
