Brodick Castle

One of the most historic Scottish castles lies on the Isle of Arran off the western coast of Scotland, about 30 miles west of Glasgow and 75 miles west of Edinburgh.

Since the fifth century the site of Brodick Castle has served as a fortress, whether for the Celtic invaders from Northern Ireland, for Oliver Cromwell's Roundhead troops during the English Civil War, or home to the dukes of Hamilton. It finally passed into the hands of the duchess of Montrose and from there, in l957, became the property and responsibility of the National Trust of Scotland.

Brodick Castle is known for it's art, antiques, and award-winning gardens full of rhododendrons and plants from around the world. The gardens are walled and are adjacent to a semi domesticated forest, the Country Park.Visitors can take a high-speed train line from Glasgow to Androssan Harbor, or drive along the A737. From there, a ferry to the town of Brodick takes about 30 minutes (cars are permitted on the ferry). The Isle of Arran is small, about 25 miles long and 10 miles wide and known for its beautiful mountains and geology. The town of Brodick boasts several good hotels within easy walk of Brodick Castle. Brodick Castle in Scotland is open daily from Easter to October 31, from 11 am to 4:30 pm and on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in the winter. Admission is about $20 per person for adults.
