- Urquhart Castle is situated on the coast of Loch Ness in the Highlands of Scotland. It is about a 21 minute drive from the city of Inverness.
The present castle dates from around 1230 and was built by the Durward family. It was captured by Edward I of England. It was a Scottish royal castle from the mid 1300's. It was raided several times by the MacDonald Earls of Ross. Eventually the castle was granted to Clan Grand in 1509 but the MacDonald's continued raiding the castle.
It was partially destroyed in 1692 to prevent the Jacobite forces from capturing the castle.
It was opened to the public in the 20th century and is now one of the most visited castles in Scotland.
Despite it's picturesque location, it has only been used in 2 films: "The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes (1970)" and "Loch Ness (1996)". It was featured in the Outlander books as the location where Frank and Claire have their 2nd Honeymoon.
The official website for the castle is: www.historicenvironment.scot/...

Great narration!
Thanks so much!
I agree the narration is excellent.
Loch Ness looks like Lake Okanagan in BC. We have Ogopogo and you have Nessie.
Hah!
We're calld the Urquhart t's
Why don’t people have homes near these lakes? In North America we have tons of homes on waters edge.
Good question, maybe it is government owned, but not sure.
what about the other Castle that's at the bottom of the lake? did you know that there's one under water? yeah and get this it's completely intact not ruins like this one.
Wow, had no idea! That is cool!
