Kelburn Castle, Country Centre and Estate

Oops, wrote this a while back and forgot to publish it! This was from our holiday to Scotland.

The only other thing we went to was Kelburn Castle. It was very good. When we got there they were doing a Viking reenactment which was quite fun to watch. They battled with swords and axes.

Again there were lots of animals. We mistakenly followed a sign to the castle and it took us on a rather long route across the river and back round past the castle. Its not a  good big stoney castle but they have painted the sides of it graffiti style :-\ it looks quite good but a little strange.

They had a nicely tended garden bit I imagine you'd have liked. We never did see how to get in to the castle but we looked at the leaflet when we got back and it would've cost extra anyway. The kids wandered off and we lost them for a couple of mins it turned out they wandered off into a no-entry bit :-( but unfortunately we found them again. There was also a "secret forest " which was rather fun. It was a big maze with various buildings and crazy stuff all in a forest. It was big and took ages to walk around and I don't know if we saw it all. The kids always picked opposite directions so they had to take turns to lead.
