The Scottish castle surrounded by water that featured in Monty Python

Scotland is home to many unique and historic castles, but few are as visually striking as Castle Stalker.

Located 25 miles north of Oban on the west coast of the country, the picturesque castle is surrounded on all sides by water. It is among the best-preserved mediaeval tower houses in Scotland, and is a Category A listed building.

Castle Stalker is set on a tidal islet on Loch Laich, an inlet off Loch Linnhe. Due to its unusual location, the castle can only be accessed from the shore at low tide, though even then it can prove difficult.
