Balloch Castle, Loch Lomond Tel: 01389 758216.
Balloch Castle Country Park lies within the 170 square miles
of Loch Lomond Regional Park. The visitor centre is in Balloch
Castle itself, but this is a modern version, built in 1808. The
original castle was built in 1238 by the Earls of Lennox (before
they built a more secure stronghold on Inchmurrin Island on the
loch). There is now only a mound and a depression that was the
moat, surviving from the original castle. About 8 miles south of Luss. |
