All tours start at 2pm (each tour lasts approx. 1 hour).
Admission FREE, but places are limited, so booking is essential on (01382) 436916.
The age and nature of Broughty Castle unfortunately means that there is no disabled access other than to the courtyard area. Please also note that the tours are unsuitable for people with mobility problems. The Gory Story tour takes place mainly outside, so wearing sensible shoes and appropriate weatherproof clothing is advised.
