Craigievar Castle built in the 17thC and was the family home of the Forbes family into the mid 20thC. Now in the care of a charity it has been recently repainted in its original pink

I love old buildings like these. The first one is in quite good shape for its age and lack of current care. The second one looks like an expensive hobby to maintain but still a pretty neat looking structure.

I need to get back to Scotland. I only spent 2 days there, but considering I am part Scottish, I really would like to go back and explore where some of my ancestors came from.

All of these look great. A Pink castle is so cool and looks like something we would see in a Disney movie. But you can't beat an old and beaten looking castle like the Huntly Castle.
