Braemar Castle is a 17th century castle located in idyllic Aberdeenshire in the north of Scotland.
Set against the idyllic backdrop of the Cairngorm mountains, the castle with its turrets was built in 1628. A tour of the castle tells you all about its fascinating history and its former inhabitants. The castle is also the subject of many ghost stories, so fans of the supernatural will also get their money's worth. The castle's own dungeon is very popular with young and old alike.
