10 Best Castles in Edinburgh | Condé Nast Traveler
"Calling Hopetoun a "house" is like calling the Met Gala a "get-together"—we all know it’s a bit more than that. In fact, Hopetoun is a palace by another name. The Hope family have lived here since the late 1600s when the house was built, and still do this day. Luckily for us, they allow visitors at certain times of the year, either for events, clay-shooting, archery, or just to have a walk around. Just 35 minutes west of the city, it's also popular among fans of the hugely popular Outlander show, as the castle is a regular filming location ." - Freya Herring
