A, 815, Toward PA23 7UG, Scotland

Castle Toward is a nineteenth-century country house on the southern tip of the Cowal peninsula, overlooking Rothesay Bay in Argyll and Bute on the west-coast of Scotland.

It was greatly extended in the early 20th century, and in the Second World War it served as HMS Brontosaurus.
