Due to our remote location in open countryside and that we are not served by public transport, we suggest you visit one of the many tours available or your own transport. If you do decide to visit using a taxi or UBER, please ask your driver if they are willing to wait for you as it is very difficult to get a taxi at Midhope Castle. As we are an outside experience please dress for the Scottish weather. We also ask visitors to adhere to our guidelines which can be accessed here.
