Tantallon Castle

Tantallon Castle is a mid-14th century fortress, located about three miles south-east of North Berwick, in East Lothian, Scotland. It sits atop the rugged coastline opposite the Bass Rock, looking out onto the Firth of Forth. TheTamshee: and family enjoy hooking up the Speedbird and taking the short trip to Tantallon Caravan Park. North Berwick has lots to offer, with a visit to the Seabird Centre to track the wildlife on the Rock, well worth the entry fee. The castle is one of the most impressive land marks that I have come across on my travels, with recent stories of ghosts adding to the charm of the castle that was badly damaged by
Oliver Cromwell's forces in 1651 Click Here for ghostly video footage.
