Geocache Description:

This cache is placed to bring you to this point with a beautiful view of the castle on one side of the road and across the lake on the other. You can meander around the gardens of Brodie Castle or take a walk around the duck lake.

You do not have to climb over any fences, the cache is accessible from the road.

Brodie Castle is located 4.5 miles west of Forres and 24 miles east of Inverness on the east coast of Scotland.

Having been badly damaged by fire in 1645, the castle was later rebuilt. The lime-harled building is a typical Z plan tower house with ornate corbelled battlements and bartizans. If you know where to look, you can see cannon drain spouts and a sun dial built into the side of the keep.

Today you can visit in the interior with its unusual plaster ceilings and see French furniture, paintings, European and Chinese porcelain, Japanese artefacts, toys and much, much more. There are many rooms open to visit on several floors so you need to allow a good hour to look around everything.

Brodie Castle is owned by the National Trust of Scotland, there is an admission charge to enter the Castle building.
