20th September 2021 – 80 miles travelled
Today we headed south on the A9 to visit Dunrobin castle.
We arrived at Dunrobin castle just 10 minutes before the falconry display in the garden, so that was the first thing we did on arrival.
After the talk and display we were given the chance to see the peregrine falcon up close and have a photo taken with it.
There were a collection of birds of prey and owls on display around the grounds, one of my favourite was the Benegal Eagle Owl.
Before heading inside got to see the famous view of Dunrobin Castle which is outside from the back of the building with the beautiful gardens in the foreground.
After the falconry display we went to the tea rooms for lunch, sandwiches and cake, which were nice if a little expensive.
Then it was on to a tour of the castle.
Just as we finished the tour and headed back to the car it started to rain, good timing and back to the cottage not bothering with any further stops.
