The entire castle can be rented out or just one room
If you're looking for a holiday spot that's something a bit different, you can rent out an entire Scottish castle that dates back to the 13th century.
Situated on a ridge of rock overlooking the sea, the site was considered strategically important and so the castle was constructed in order to dominate the northern entrance to the Sound of Mull. According to the Mingary Castle website, it was originally built by Clan MacDougall. Following this, the castle was besieged by the MacDonalds of Lochalsh who captured it two years later. A few years after, the MacIains attempted to take back Mingary but were unsuccessful and their clan chief was killed in the process.
In the 21st century, the castle fell due to crumbling stonework, a battered roof, and collapsed floors. In an effort to prevent the remains of the castle from falling into the sea, a three year renovation project was undertaken in 2013.
