Spectacularly situated right on top of steep cliffs rising from the North Sea, Slains Castle might not be beautiful in itself, but the setting and the atmosphere still make it a very special place.
As soon as we reached the top of the muddy hill, we spotted the contours of Slains Castle sticking out of the flat landscape. As we walked closer we saw the wild sea crashing on the rocks under us, the white foam being pushed high into the sky and dispersed by the strong wind. Under a perfectly blue December sky with just a few scattered clouds, we reached the castle. As we got nearer, the contours turned into an actual castle. Or rather, the ruins, because not much more than walls remain.
