The Best Attractions In Golspie

1. Dunrobin Castle and Gardens Golspie
Dunrobin Castle is a stately home in Sutherland, in the Highland area of Scotland, and the family seat of the Earl of Sutherland and the Clan Sutherland. It is located 1 mile north of Golspie, and approximately 5 miles south of Brora, overlooking the Dornoch Firth.

After being used as a boarding school for seven years, it is now open to the public.

Walking my dog Ronnie, at Littleferry, on the shore of Loch Fleet, near Golspie, in the Scottish Highlands ...
