After Huntingtower Castle we drove to Loch Leven near Kinross.
In the middle of the island is one of the oldest castles in Scotland. It is perhaps most famous for a prisoner once held there - Mary Queen of Scots.
At that time the loch came right up to the castle walls. Since then the loch has been drained so that the castle now stands on a small island.
There is one resident who is quite tame and likes chocolate.
For more on the island, follow the links.
