New Slains Castle 16th Century
Epic aerial view of New Slains Castle overlooking the sea cliffs near Cruden Bay of Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Spectacularly located on precipitous cliffs above the sea, which incorporates part of the basement of the 16th-century tower house.
The castle is also famous for being the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula following his stay at the castle.
The castle is well sign-posted with parking quite nearby. Care should be taken if you take children or dogs to see this magnificent ruin, due to the precipitous cliff-side location.
