Tantallon Castle

During our first full day in Scotland, we started our castle hunt at Tantallon Castle. Found along the shore near North Berwick, the ruins are at an outstanding setting on top of the cliffs. The view of the large monoliths in the Firth of Forth (bay near Edinburgh) is very unique. The grounds near Tantallon are simple grassy rolling hills. At the first Scottish castle, a seven day ticket may be purchased at a very reasonable price to gain entrance to 54 different castles and other historical places in Scotland.
