    Great Estates Scotland

    WGBH Boston is running a series entitled Great Estates Scotland. This evening featured Inveraray Castle, and the Duke of Argyll. An interesting programme on what it takes to run a large house; and yes, there were the requisite kilts and pipers and fly fishing shots we all love so much. The series airs Sunday evenings at 10:30 eastern.

    I would check with your local PBS station. You can also purchase a DVD of the entire series through the PBS website. Also, the entire first episode featuring Inveraray Castle, is available in its entirety via the first link below. Enjoy!

    Inverary Castle

    inverary4.jpgMy wife and I were there in 2012. While she walked the dog, I went inside to see the fantastic array of claymores arranged on the walls, and the superb rooms and paintings. In my MacDonald kilt, I felt at home, and was certainly not regarded as a tourist, (see another Blog). I bought a bottle of the Duke's whisky; very good it was too.
