Saddell Castle

Saddell Castle
A look at this old castle at Saddell on the Mull of Kintyre. This is in fact the back of the castle which on this day was better lit than the front.
Nowadays it is rented out by the Landmark Trust but this has a really significant history. The original castle was built in the 12th century but the current castle was built in the 1508 with further major restoration and repairs c 1774. The castle served as a bastion for the MacDonald family and several MacDonald lords resided here.

The PiP shows the small bridge only a hundred or so metres from this spot.

Have a good day
