Ruined 19th-century Buchanan Castle offers dramatic Gothic-Revival architecture wrapped in ivy and crumbling stone—ideal for moody, textural shots and wide landscapes with Loch Lomond hills. Best at golden hour or overcast afternoons for soft contrast; misty mornings and autumn foliage add atmosphere. Access is from nearby minor roads and public footpaths; do not enter unstable ruins—shoot from prepared viewpoints or public land. Limited roadside parking and village parking in Drymen; respect no
