Dumbarton Castle

Site of the ancient capital of Strathclyde, Mary Queen of Scots sailed to France from here as a child in 1548. The castle is spectacularly sited on a volcanic rock overlooking the River Clyde. Displays in Governor's House.

Regrettably with 547 steps throughout the castle the property is not suitable for visitors using wheelchairs or with limited mobility.
