Castle Stalker Near Port Appin By Loch Linne
Some information about Castle Stalker at Port Appin by Loch Linnhe
There are stories of arguments, murders, hunting visits by the Stewart's relative King James IV of Scotland and a drunken bet around 1620 resulting in the castle passing to Clan Campbell. The Campbells finally abandoned the castle around 1840, when it lost its roof. Then in 1908 a Stewart bought the castle and carried out basic conservation work, and in 1965 Lt. Col. D. R. Stewart restored it as a habitable house.
The Castle is open for short spells in the Summer – follow the link for details*
