Lonely Planet review for Tantallon Castle
Perched on a cliff 3 miles east of North Berwick is the spectacular ruin of Tantallon Castle. Built around 1350, it was the fortress residence of the Douglas earls of Angus (the ‘Red Douglases’), defended on one side by a series of ditches and on the other by an almost sheer drop into the sea.
