After a walk through the cold, wind swept and abandonded Scottish countryside, I reached the gate of Tantallon Castle. However, that gate was closed.
I had good views over the coast, and then saw the contours of Tantallon Castle in a distance. Walking on, I passed a small village, turned right, and after another few hundred metres, arrived at the gate. A closed gate, however. When I consulted the information sign, I realized the castle was actually closed on that day. That was not what I was told in Edinburgh. After the train journey and the walk from North Berwick, I just could not turn back being so close. I decided to jump over the fence and visit anyway. A second gate awaited me a little further on, but after that, Tantallon Castle loomed just behind the old gate. I explored the castle grounds, the dovecot, and found out I could not visit the castle proper. All the time, I felt a little guilty for having entered illegally.
