Unfortunately at this time Corgarff Castle is closed to visitors. We hope to have the site open once again in May 2023. An isolated tower house in the Cairgorms that was a residence of the high-status Forbes family. After Culloden in 1746, it was converted to become a Redcoat garrison fortress, largely to suppress Jacobite activity. What to see and do: Admire the splendid isolation of the castle, which is situated at the head of remote Strathdon. Check out the star-shaped perimeter wall - the castle's most distinctive feature was added when it became a military base. Visit the reconstructed barrack rooms to imagine being stationed here in 1750 as a Redcoat from Pulteney's 13th Foot regiment. Guided tours available on site Check out a variety of souvenirs from the gift shop. Open summer only - 26th March - 30th September Admission: Adult £6, Child £3.60, Concession £4.80 Visitor parking and bus parking available

The Lost Gallery is set deep in the beguiling tranquility of Glen Nochty, a delightful drive through the woodland that surrounds Strathdon, in Upper Donside. It is housed in a 19th century farmhouse that crouches low into the side of Moss Hill. one of the gentler sisters of the nearby Cairngorms. It is an idylic setting which engenders just the mood to appreciate the gallery's innovative show of contemporary art and enjoy respite from the furore and fumes of modern life. The guiding policy at the Lost Gallery is simply stated. It is to show works by modern artists who most excite the owners, artist Peter Goodfellow and his wife Jean. Today The Lost Gallery is clearly identified as one of the most interesting venues in northern Scotland, with an exciting eclectic collection.
