This is
not one of Scotland's most ancient castles by any definition, in
fact it was built in 1858. Having said that it is an interesting
building and an excellent place to visit. The castle is situated
about a mile from Craignure on Mull the main ferry port for
those coming and going to
Oban. Whether
you have arrived at Craignure as a foot passenger or not, the
ideal way to get to Torosay is by their very own narrow gauge
steam train.

The castle
grounds have magnificent gardens and there is a cafe and a
gift and souvenir shop. There is also an adventure
playground. Visitors also have access to the main rooms of
the castle which built in a baronial style by the architect
David Bryce is one of the finest examples of his work.
This is a
great day out visit from
Oban you can also include nearby
Duart Castle. The ferries
from
Oban are frequent and therefore
you don't need to rush your visit to either location. |
