Dunvegan is certainly one of the most beautiful castles in Scotland. Very well preserved, both the Castle and the Gardens, allow a true insight into its history and life. Deserves a detailed visit- Full review by mota1965

Basically no! The ticket gate entry is a couple of hundred metres from the castle and it is partly hidden by the gardens. You can get around to the foreshore and see it from a distance, but perhaps that is not worth the trip, unless you still want to visit Dunvegan.

How long did you spend there?

This attraction can accommodate a very large amount of people. You will not have a problem getting tickets at the location when you arrive. There is no way they would reach the limit for visitors at any one time. It's huge and relatively out of the way for many travellers to go. Be sure to leave yourself enough time to tour. They close the gates and ask you to leave by 5:00 and the souvenire shop closed at 4. We only arrived just before 4 so we had to rush and didn't get to enjoy the amazing gardens surrounding the castle. It's well worth spending at least 2 hours there. Enjoy!
