A Day at Aberdour Castle

Location: travel
A Day at Aberdour Castle

Aberdour Castle is located in Fife, just over the water from Edinburgh. Parts of it could be Scotland’s oldest standing castle with later additions added. If you’re a fan of Outlander, you’ll recognize it from the first season. Spending a day at Aberdour Castle is a worthy day trip from Edinburgh and an experience you …

One of the first things we did when we arrived in Scotland was buy a Historic Scotland membership for the family.
