Dunnottar Castle

Lying between the Grampian Mountains and the North Sea which washes its north and east coasts, rural Aberdeenshire is best known for its beef cattle, its coastal fishing villages and its many historic castles. Aberdeenshire is also home to major paper, food and drink, tourism and oil-related industries. It is watered by the Dee, Don, Ythan and Deveron Rivers and its chief towns are Fraserburgh, Banff, Inverurie, Stonehaven and Peterhead which is Europe's largest white-fish port.
