Only a solitary ruined gate tower remains - a standing testament to the turbulent times experienced at Dunseverick Castle. It's free to visit and open year-round, but take care exploring as there are sheer cliffs on three sides.

Absolutely overrated. Many trees have been broken or cut down. Completely overcrowded during normal daytime. You really don't have to go there...only if it's on your way.
