Dunrobin Castle

Dunrobin Castle

Dunrobin Castle is in Sutherland, in the Highlands of Scotland (Scottish Gaelic: Cataibh, a’ Ghàidhealtachd, Alba). This is a stately home and seat of the Clan Sutherland and the Countess of Sutherland. Although the original house dates back to the early fifteenth century it has been extended over subsequent centuries and the house today is mainly that of architect Sir Charles Barry in the mid-nineteenth century. The castle and grounds are open form the 1st April to the 15th October. The museum in the grounds has a collection of Pictish symbol stones and cross slabs. The castle is located off the A9 along the east coast about five miles south of Brora/Brura towards Golspie/Goillspidh in Sutherland.
