Dunollie House Historic Tours. A lovely day in Oban. Hebridean Pursuits have teamed up with Dunollie Castle Museum and House. www.dunollie.org to guide visitors on local historic walks in the Oban area. The walks will take place throughout the summer and dates can be found on the website above. Today Iain and Fiona were experiencing the fascinating Clan history of the MacDougalls, Robert the Bruce and latterly the Campbells at both Dunollie and Dunstaffnage Castles on a scenic circular walk along the coastline and in the small hills above Ganavan Bay. We were also privileged to have a private viewing of the the newly refurbished tower at Dunstaffnage. This is where The Clan chief of the Campbell's was obliged to sleep for one night a year for it to remain in the clan's possession! check out www.dunollie.org for more dates through the summer.
