When I saw the thumbnail, I thought "Ah, he's at Dunnottar!" I was just there at the end of April. Enjoyed a wonderful three days in Stonehaven and an afternoon wandering around the castle. The day I visited was cold and foggy all day, but it set a great mood, especially seeing the castle in the distance while hiking the trail. Enjoyed your video and will share it with family and friends.
Eddie! I absolutely love your videos mate. Thanks for taking the time and effort to do such a grand job editing and composing the music. I live in Paisley and would love to buy you a pint. I was recently in Alnwick at the Tanners Arms to celebrate my birthday and was up at Dunnottar last year in October but you give it a different perspective because you don’t take a car. The build up is so much better. I also lived in fife as a kid so love your videos of the coastal path. In a chaotic world you bring honesty, realism and authenticity. Thank you
Many thanks. Always good to get a nice comment. When in Alnwick I spent a bit of time in the Tanners Arms; lovely pub with a tree in the middle of the room. Alnwick's a lovely place. As is Stonehaven. Take care.
Smashed it again Ed. Brilliant location and very interesting history lesson. I live just up the road from Cromwell "s birthplace, Huntingdon, horrible man. Great stuff Ed, catch you on the next one pal 👍
Fantastic. I lived in Ballater & Banchory for almost 20 years & regularly enjoyed trips to Stonehaven & Donnottar. Marvellous camera work as always Ed 🫡
Great video and beautiful views of the castle, and looking across the water. The information about the castle gives a wonderful and charming vision of it’s historical past. Thanks, Lynn in Naples FL 😎
Yet another excelent video Ed. You had a superb day for it with perfect lighting to show the setting at it's best. I have intended on visiting this castle for years, just haven't got round to it. I think I will need to do it over the summer this year. Im always impressed with your video quality... You seem to get the exposure spot on.
Thanks for that. I'd love to be able to say there was skill involved on my part, but in fact for much of the time the camera settings are on auto, and with such a bright sunny day it easily settled into an appropriate setting. Often I will edit each individual bit of footage, maybe increase the colour or contrast to perhaps improve the image a bit. As you'll know yourself, what viewers don't get to see is all the footage that, for whatever reason, is so bad that it can't be used (like when the camera decides that some inanimate object in the background is far more interesting than my face and so focuses on it instead of me!).
Great video, Ed. Really enjoy your videos. Hoping to visit Carlisle Castle this year as one of my ancestors was in jail there for three years for being a Jacobite. Been to Dunnottar Castle twice in my life and found it to be an amazing place. Watching this brought back some nice memories, thank you for sharing. All the very best, Davey.
Cheers Davey. My own ancestor was a Jacobite supporter, and although not actively involved in any fighting, was forced to go into hiding when redcoats searched the area. When they arrived at the croft his wife refused to tell them where he was, and was apparently mistreated. Terrible things happened back then. Take care.
Wow very impressed by this castle Ed such a powerful looking entrance, even from a distance you get the impression of ( Don't mess with me) Scotland should be very proud of Dunnnottar Castle. Thank you for the history, very interesting.
Great video Ed. Dunnottar is my favourite castle of the ones I have so far visited in Scotland - well worth the effort. Though I personally much prefer the ones in ruin over a Dunrobin or Eilean Donan. Stonehaven is a great town as well!
Well done Ed. Much appreciated.
Thank you. 👍

Many thanks. Fog and mist certainly give a great atmosphere for exploring castles.
Hi Ed, great video, a very popular place by the looks of it, and no wonder, look at the location.

We walked that route to the castle 2 years ago on a motorhome tour, by far our favourite place to visit. Great video again 👍
Thanks. You can't beat a coastal walk. Throw in a castle and... heaven.

Hello Ed I've just started watching your channel found it tonight which is great love your videos keep up the good work 👍
Many thanks.
Such a beautiful day to be out and about and such an interesting piece of Scotlands history. Thanks for the history lesson Ed.
Thank you. Great spell of weather at the moment, which always helps.
Thank you for your time and effort to give us this video and enduring the trek and unusual Scottish heatwave it would seem 😉👍🏴
Went to Dunnotar Castle a few years ago.Still pretty impressive,considering it is derelict.Must have been some sight in it’s day!
Absolutely.
thanks Edd
I've never been to Dunnottar Castle. It certainly has a long and interesting history. Great video. 👍
Stunning location and well worth a visit. Many thanks.

Scotland should be very proud of Dunnnottar Castle. Thank you for the history, very interesting.
Absolutely. That huge curtain wall built across the only access spot at the small gate - just stunning.
Great video Ed. Dunnottar is my favourite castle of the ones I have so far visited in Scotland - well worth the effort. Though I personally much prefer the ones in ruin over a Dunrobin or Eilean Donan. Stonehaven is a great town as well!
Many thanks. The location of Dunnottar certainly puts it head and shoulders above many other castles.
I hope ye wiped yer boots on the way back up ;)
