イーストロージアンの洞窟・トップ6

Star of many movies and television shows good place to start on the castle trail

Please be aware that the castle is no longer accessible to the public due to unsafe masonry. It has actually been sold to a private owner and it’s therefore unlikely to reopen in the foreseeable future. It is still a fine building to view from the outside, particularly from the river bank opposite.

Birtley brae

Worth spending a few minutes watching the birds

Castle is now closed off.

The original stone keep was built here before 1267. It was used, defended and attacked at various times until the mid 1500's when it was abandoned when the laird moved to a new tower house on the site of the current Yaster House. The castle fell into ruin and now only the partially underground Goblin Hall remains. The castle is in a wonderful position in a bend of the stream and surrounded by woodland. It makes a great walk from Gifford.

Dating back to the early 1200's with major additions in the 1300's this is one of Scotland’s oldest castles. You can visit the castle and grounds. Managed by Historic Scotland.

Beautiful ruin overlooking the harbour. Dunbar castle was supposedly once one of Scotland's strongest fortresses given its position. Now it's a great tourist attraction with loads of interesting bits to explore.
