Situated about 1.5 kms west of the fishing village of Sandend lie the ruins of the once mighty three storey high Findlater Castle.
Built by the Ogilvie family in 1455, it was besieged by Mary Queen of Scots in 1562, during the Gordon rebellion.
Situated on a rocky precipice somme 15m above the sea overlooking the Moray Firth, the castle can only be reached by foot over a rocky headland.
This is not one for the faint hearted has there are no barriers or proper steps. Leave a Comment Directions: 3 kms East of Cullen follow signs from the A98. Park at the car park by the farm, and its a 10 minute walk in hte direction of the sea.

Ghosts, legends and folklore are all woven into the tapestry of Fyvie’s 800-year history. Each tower of this magnificent Scottish Baronial fortress is traditionally associated with one of the castle’s five successive families – Preston, Meldrum, Seton, Gordon and Forbes-Leith. You can see their influences today among the medieval stones and the lavish Edwardian interiors, and imagine what castle life must have been like for the families and their royal guests – among them Robert the Bruce and CharlesI.
Art lovers will appreciate Fyvie’s rich portrait collection, including works by Batoni, Romney, Gainsborough, Opie, Lawrence and Hoppner. The castle also boasts one of the largest private collections of Raeburns in the world. There’s an equally impressive collection of fine furniture, tapestries, arms and armour throughout the castle’s vast chambers, and a great stone wheel staircase – the finest of its kind in Scotland.
