You can’t actually get to the castle as far as I could work out. You can get a nice view from a couple of spots but you have to pay to see anything properly. Quite disappointing.

We a great little castle. We missed the turn and got to see some amazing scenery along our way. Gift shop and cafe were cute. Definitely worth a quick stop. We had poor weather and it was still worth the stop.

The castle is beautiful and stunning standing in the middle of water. The problem is there is no formal parking space or a view point except the private property nearby. You can only stop at the bins area and take a short walk towards Appin Station to have a good view to the castle

Castle clearly not accessible, there’s a small parking area around the garbage bins, after that can take a stroll towards the water body and along the rocky beach, or can follow the cycling path until there’s an entrance in! Glad to be able to see this and capture some nice shots

Very beautiful castle near appin. Situated on a rock in the water, so you'll be needing a boat to get there. Unfortunately there wasn't one when I was there. Very famous because someone once lost it after gambling ! You can get very close after passing the millenium bridge.

Amazing old castle which seems to be in the process of being restored, it’s out in the loch on an island of its own so can only be accessed by a pre-arranged tour I believe. Nonetheless, I think it’s absolutely worth visiting to view the castle and surrounding areas from the shore of the mainland if you are nearby.
