Why visit Doune Castle?

While the castle has a long history as a stronghold dating back to Roman times, its more extravagant features are all thanks to Scotland's famous 'uncrowned king': Robert Stewart 1st Duke of Albany, who enjoyed hosting large parties and used this castle as a way to demonstrate his power and wealth through sparing no expense in its improvements. Visitors today are still in awe of its grandeur despite its ruined state. So come along and imagine for yourself what it must have been like to walk these halls in their heyday.
