About Appin

  • Castle Stalker, the fifteenth-century tower house that stands on a tiny island in Loch Laich near Appin, is one of the most photographed castles in Scotland and one of the most dramatically situated medieval buildings in Britain. The castle, which was built by the Stewart Lords of Lorn, was used as a hunting lodge by James IV of Scotland and later passed through several hands before being restored in the twentieth century. The castle is privately owned but is occasionally open to visitors, and its combination of architectural beauty and dramatic setting — surrounded by water with the mountains of Glencoe in the background — makes it one of the most iconic images of the Scottish Highlands.
