Dunrobin Castle

Frommer's Review

Home of the earls and dukes of Sutherland, Dunrobin is not only the most northerly of Scotland's great houses but also the biggest in the northern Highlands, dating in part from the early 13th century. Its formal gardens are laid out in the manner of Versailles. On the grounds is a museum containing many relics from the Sutherland family. Some of the castle's 180 rooms are open to the public -- the ornately furnished dining room, a billiard room, and the room and gilded four-poster bed where Queen Victoria slept when she visited in 1872.
