The Castle of Mey is the Caithness home of the late Queen Mother. She bought the castle in 1952, restored it and created the beautiful gardens you see today. She first saw what was then Barrogill Castle, while mourning the death of her husband, King George VI. Falling for its ruined isolated charm, and hearing it was to be abandoned, she declared: "Never! It’s part of Scotland’s heritage. I’ll save it."
