Stopping off to visit Dunrobin Castle is a highlight of any journey through the Northern Highlands. Overlooking the Moray Firth, just north of Golspie and Dornoch, this striking French-style château boasts 189 rooms, making it the largest house in the region. Dunrobin Castle has been home to the Earls and Dukes of Sutherland since the 1300s, making it one of Britain’s oldest continuously inhabited residences. Its architecture reflects the influence of Sir Charles Barry and Sir Robert Lorimer. Once a naval hospital and later a boys’ school, the castle’s rich history and fairytale spires make it a must-see stop.
