It is surrounded by 2 acres of formal gardens and 14 acres of parkland and lies around a mile north of the village of Inveraray, near the shore of LochFyne in Argyll and Bute.
Inveraray Castle is the home of the current duke (Torquhil Campbell, 13th Duke of Argyll) and his family, but its distinctive appearance, beautiful interiors and attractive setting make it a popular tourist attraction, and it is open to visitors at certain times of the year.
