Today we take a look around the epic Kilchurn Castle at Loch Awe in Scotland. After walking round the castle we take a first person point of view look through the castle before getting some drone footage of the castle.
The highland castle is looked after by Historic Scotland and is a fantastic location for tourists and landscape photography. It's definitely worth a visit and a walk in the surrounding area of Loch Awe.
People camp just across the water as there is easy access from the road however it looks like a popular area so if solitude is your thing then there are much better locations. Camping actually at the castle should be avoided as it has historic significance and we wouldn't want to disturb anything of historic significance plus camping would also have an impact on Scottish tourism in the area. I did have some tents up in this video but this was to film a short tent review: no grass was flattened, the shepard stake pins were just in to avoid penetrating the ground and disturbing potential archaeological material and I was there at 05:00 in the morning to avoid any impact on tourism.
Not only was I there so early to not disturb tourists etc but the castle and Loch awe are perfect for some landscape photography, especially during sunrise of course!
All the best,
John & Moss
Magical Scotland. Thanks for sharing another hidden gem.!!!!!!!!!
Thanks! 🐾👍
I miss the 1650's. Scotland was a small place back then, but it truly was a lively place. Every weekend we'd wear skirts and play pokey-pokey with a sharp stick.
You only had to worry aboot the Kurgan coming roon now and again givin' it all 'There can be only one' style!
Worth it! 🐾👍
Thankyou for giving us a good look at the castle.
Cheers! 🙂🐾👍
Thanks for your video, it's so beautiful! Really want to visit the castle ruin if I have a chance.
No problem: glad you enjoyed it! Hope you get a chance to visit too! 🙂🐾👍

Cheers! 🙂🐾👍
Love this video! My wife and i went there in October of 2019 and so the castle was locked up and we couldn’t see inside. I’ll have to show her this

Wonderful tour of the castle- hard to imagine people really lived there and what their life was like- it’s such a fairy tale !
Thanks Jennifer! Yeah, I love castles and such. I'm a member of Historic Scotland so always visit castles etc when I'm around anything like that. This is a great wee castle! 🐾👍
@@HoundsofHowgate Yea, you really know how they were put together, how to make sense of what's left now! -They must have been fabulous back in the day!
@@JenniferLupine totally! I would love to have seen what life was actually like in a castle. What it was like at the time; it just blows my mind! I can't imagine it at all!
Another cracking video John. Love the intro. Good to see you out and about with Moss. All the best mate
Thanks man!
Cheers! 🐾👍
Stunning castle John and Moss,
Yeah it's a good 'un for sure! 🐾👍
Up near there in May and will visit
Note to self. Probably best to avoid putting tent quite so close to ancient & probably crumbling castle walls.
Hi Sarah, aye, totally. 👍 That's why I put the wee disclaimer in also saying that I just pitched the tents for the vid and review, not to actually camp. Plus there were only a couple of thin pegs in just cm's to avoide any possible disruption of archeology: I'm a member of Historic Scotland and am quite conscious about these things.
In fact as it's a maintained Historic Scotland site the walls are maintained, safe and regularly inspected, so no worries about that either, haha, but yeah,I get what you mean, lol. 😂🐾👍
You could use that castle for inspiration for your new gaff mate, would loved to have been there with my camera
Make the new pad all castle style. Actually I would quite like to live in a castle! 🐾👍

There's an establishment near Glen Coe that has a sign says " no thieves or Campbells. " I paid cash so they didn't find out and toss me out!
Really great editing and camera magic . Are ye a Campbell ? Lol
