Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Fantastic looking medieval castle right next to ugly modern housing. Built in the late 1500's and in remarkably good condition as it was continually occupied for nearly 500 years. In 1689 it became crown property after the death of the then owner in battle. Although not open you are able to wander all around its outside and there is also an information board.

Utterly gorgeous tiny castle in a built up residential area surrounded by homes. A fabulous example of a medieval fortified house extended to a home & in such great condition on the outside. This was nr2 in a 30-castle tour of Aberdeenshire & we never saw anything like this anywhere else. Would have loved to see inside, but it was firmly locked up. Visit anyway - well worth a look round the outside & easy to find & park.

Either the worlds smallest castle or a large fortified house, which I think is a more accurate description.
Very pretty and scenic but unfortunately it appears to be always closed to the public - but it looks good from outside.

Living in Scotland and having visited lots of castles over the years, i can appreciate the design and quirkiness of this one. You can arrange a viewing of the interior of the castle if you wish. Located in a small street with houses around, the location is …. Different. Enjoyed looking around though.

Claypotts is an elaborate castle in Scotland in the Baronial style. Its most striking features are its elaborate elevations, highly asymmetric towers and turrets, and a faux battlement that juts out so much, it looks like it would fall over. It’s worth walking around the building to fully appreciate the complex geometry of round towers, stair turrets and the crazy corbeling of the attic rooms.
The tower house is something of a time capsule: it’s barely altered and retains many original features, including, remarkably, its timber roof. It owes its state of preservation to consistent occupation for nearly 500 years of its life.

More of a fortified house than a castle in the midst of a council estate. Once owned by Bonnie Dundee himself. Did have a ghost that helped in the kitchen.

Para poder visitar precisa de pedir as chaves numa das casas perto do castelo mas mais uma vez não conseguimos chegar a tempo porque o horário seria só até às 17h! Deu para apreciar por fora toda a envolvente em que as traseiras das casas dá para este pequeno castelo ;)

It is a tiny lovely castle. Be aware that if you want to see it inside, you need to book it by phone in advance. However, it was really easy, we got the day and time which really suits us. It is not much to see, but still I recommend. We were the only visitors at that time, which is always a nice surprise after visiting other, sometimes crowded places.

We did not realise until we got to Claypotts Castle that only the exterior was viewable unless previous arrangements had been made by calling a number to request an internal visit, so although we are members of Historic Scotland we could not see the inside of this well preserved castle that started life as a private dwelling.
Unlike so many castles in Scotland, Claypotts is not ruined or in a state of semi-ruin. It is intact surrounded by a well maintained grass compound.

Claypotts is a beautifully kept, tiny castle - built as a fortified residence of the Strachan family between 1569 and 1588 as can be seen in the date stamps of the two gables. "Claypotts castle was built to a plan which was adopted at a number of Scottish castles from the 2nd half of the 16th century onwards. The most significant aspect of this plan was the use of the projecting towers at diagonally opposite corners of a rectangle main block, thus resulting in a characteristic Z-shape."
The castle is free to view and if you wish to look inside, call the number of the caretaker which you get from the website. I did call but with not enough time for my message to be picked up and responded to, therefore we explored outside. It is in excellent condition.
