Description
This old Campbell castle holds a commanding position on Loch Awe.
~*~
There's a sign on the door of the Clachaig Inn in Glen Coe that reads..
"No Beggers
No Hawkers
And no Campbells".
Old feelings must still run deep, there was a bit of an outcry last year when the local tourist office announced that its new managers' name was ... aye, Mr.Campbell.
They might have been despised for their part in the massacre of Glen Coe, but they knew how to build a bonny wee castle.

Looks like a nice spot indeed, I'll bet a Scottish poond you hit that slope! Does the no Campbells extend to soup too?
