Dunollie Castle

Found just outside Oban, Dunollie Castle was a place that we'd passed a few times but today was the first time that we decided to venture in. From the outside, it looks a lovely old building with moss all over it; and the hill that it's mounted on provides great views of North Lorn. The museum mainly deals with the history of the MacDougall Clan, though there was a loom that was being restored to make kilts. Once we were inside, we found that the castle was undergoing preservation; a fact that was not made clear on the admissions gate which denied us from climbing the castle tower to enjoy the full views. However, this didn’t stop us from  
taking a peek inside the tower walls as there was just a line of tape preventing our path rather than a set of metal fencing surrounding the rest of the structure. Upon leaving, there was also an interesting footpath trailing to the east, but time was sadly pressing on us once again (though we did have to wait for the driver to finish his book shopping!).
