Caerlaverock Castle
 | |||||||||||||||||||||
With its moat, twin towered gatehouse and imposing battlements, Caerlaverock Castle is the epitome of the medieval stronghold. The castle’s turbulent history owes much to its proximity to England which brought it into border conflicts. Today, visitors can enjoy a siege warfare exhibition, a children’s adventure park and a nature trail. The shop features a range of local products made in Dumfries and Galloway.
