Are dogs allowed to visit?
Yes, all we ask is you keep your dog on a lead.
How much time should I plan on spending for a visit to Midhope Castle Outlander's Lallybroch?
Most visitors spend around 20 minutes at the castle. Then there is the walk down by the Midhope Burn where you can walk for miles if you wish. We would suggest around 45 minutes is the best guide.
Is Midhope Castle Outlander's Lallybroch wheelchair accessible?
We allow parking down by the castle entrance for all blue badge holders and the path up to the castle should not be a problem for wheelchair users. The castle courtyard is cobbled and grassed so this may prove a little more troublesome. There is not access in to the castle buildings.
Is Midhope Castle Outlander's Lallybroch suitable for children?
As Outlander is a TV experience for adults, there is no real activities or interest for children. Children are however very welcome and do enjoy the countryside and woods around the castle. We would remind you Midhope Castle is a Tower House NOT a castle which children will fail to understand.
Can I take a Taxi to Midhope Castle?
Yes, as there is no direct public transport to the castle a taxi may seem like a good idea, BUT please arrange for your taxi/UBER to wait for you while you visit. It is VERY difficult to call an UBER/taxi from our location. We always recommend you visit with your own transport or on an organised tour.
Do you have wi-fi (mobile phone signal)?
Due to the isolated location of the castle our mobile telephone signal is very poor. We are in the process of installing full fast broadband but this may not be available until spring 2025.
Is Jamie here today?
NO! But sometimes we get a visit from Sam....x
What happens in poor weather?
The castle is open in ALL weathers so please dress appropriately. There is very little shelter on the castle site.
