Drummond Castle and Gardens – the grounds, which date back to 1630, are considered “the best example of formal terraced gardens in Scotland”. The castle was used as the Palace of Versailles in an episode of TV drama Outlander. Jamie and Claire meet Black Jack Randall at a garden party and Jamie challenges Black Jack to a duel . French fashion house Dior held a fashion show in the gardens at Drummond Castle. Drummond Castle Gardens are protected as a category A listed building — in contrast to the B listed castle – attracts thousands of visitors per year, and are included on the Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes in Scotland.The gardens — complete with peacocks — feature ancient yew hedges and the remaining beech tree planted by Queen Victoria in 1842.But the grounds — which also featured in 1995 feature film Rob Roy, starring Liam Neeson — have now seen a huge boost in tourist numbers thanks to the  “Outlander effect”.

  1. Linlithgow Palace

– Known as Wentworth Prison in Outlander, this historic palace is also the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots.
– Wander through the same corridors where Jamie Fraser faced his darkest moments, surrounded by the stunning scenery of Linlithgow Loch

Linlithgow Palace :  There are many rumours about Linlithgow Palace, serving as a filming location for exteriors of King’s Landing, the busy capital of Westeros in Game of Thrones , although some doubt has been cast on this . Climb up to the top of the Palace for a panoramic view of the Loch and Palace . This ruined Palace has rich history as a seat of the Stewart royal family for generations and birthplace of King James V .

  1. Doune Castle

– Step into the world of Outlander, Game of Thrones (  Winterfell), and Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
– This 13th-century castle, once favoured by Mary Queen of Scots, offers a deep dive into medieval history and cinematic magic.

Doune was Castle Leoch in Outlander and Winterfell in Game of Thrones. The castle features heavily in Outlander Blood of my Blood as the clan castle of the Mackenzies .  The Feast of Winterfell was filmed in the Great Hall at the castle. Actor Sam Heughan ( Jamie Fraser in Outlander )  and Python Terry Jones provide the commentary in the audio tour .

4. Stirling Castle
– A symbol of Scotland’s heritage, Stirling Castle offers breathtaking views and a rich royal history.
– Explore the Great Hall and Royal Palace, marvel at the Renaissance architecture, and imagine the grand banquets that once took place here.

Stirling Castle is not only one of Scotland’s grandest and most imposing castles, it was also a real favourite with Scotland’s kings and queens , especially the Stewart kings . And their investment in it demonstrated just how much they loved to use it, as well as their desire to ensure it both impressed all who visited it, and represented a statement of their power and wealth. James IV created the Great Hall, the largest medieval banqueting hall ever built in Scotland, and James V’s Royal Palace , with its lavishly decorated Renaissance façades, was a masterpiece of the period.

Major conservation work has been carried out at Stirling Castle over many years to preserve the attraction as a major national and international monument. The refurbishment of the Great Hall was completed a couple of years ago . A particular feature of the Great Hall is stained glass windows featuring clan crests.

Five star review

” We loved our tour and are still talking about it! David had a great deal of knowledge and we had a comfortable drive with him to Blackness, Doune, Drummond and Stirling castles. He pointed out other landmarks (Kelpies, William Wallace monument). It was very convenient to have someone take us directly tot he castles and pick us up – it saved time and even though we have driven extensively in Scotland, it was nice to relax and enjoy the scenery without worrying about getting lost. We beat the crowds at Blackness getting there right when they opened. The William Wallace monument is near Stirling Castle and if we’d know we might’ve tried to spend less time at the Drummond gardens in favor of trying to hit that, but we were very happy with the tour and will plan to come back for the William Wallace experience. “
