Had a great time looking at the and history of the and the Armstrong Clan old and new with my mate John Will be back Thanks to fellow Graham 'Kirsty' for information and guidance and Ian for the chat outside, we also had a great chat upstairs with the warden sorry didn't get name A very quick late visit whilst passing. I must go back and have a proper look around inside and try the café if it's open when I'm there. A proper glimpse into history. An amazing piece of Scottish history, in what can only be called a beautiful landscape. From the friendly staff to the carefully restored building and interiors, the whole building xperience was delightful. Thank you for a wonderful experience 💙 Spent much longer here than we expected to. Interesting museum plus a small cafe. Friendly staff. Outside walkway around the top and a short walk down to the river Esk. We enjoyed our visit staff were very friendly and cheery. The was filled with interesting displays lots to see and learn about. The Steel Bonnets were here when we visited and this made for an entertaining day. There's also a lovely Riverside walk next to the tower. And it's also dog friendly which is a huge bonus. This place is amazing, so glad we came to visit today, one of the very few places open in the area. We was met by a lovely man called John so helpful and his knowledge about Scotland is amazing to say he is not a native, it only costs £6 per person and will worth it, the money that has been invested to restore must have cost a fortune, the views are superb from the top. If your around the area stop in, you can always just have a coffee and support the business. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and a nice wander down to the river ❤️ Visit to Gilnockie while on a trip to the Eskdale area. The has been restored and is now the home of the Armstrong clan historical collection. The day I visited a group of border reivers were there to share the history of the debatable lands between England and Scotland and the families that lived there. There is one room dedicated to Neil Armstrong the astronaut. A gift shop with coffee and snacks is also available to visitors. A great stop for any Armstrong or other border family that would like to explore a 500 year old peel Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
