MORE than 100,000 people have visited the seat of the Clan Campbell during 2016.
The Duke of Argyll, his sons Archie and Rory and staff at Inveraray Castle welcome John and Anne Butterworth from Bolton – the 100,000th visitors this year.
Inveraray Castle attracted big numbers as Argyll as a whole enjoyed a bumper summer for tourism. The Duke of Argyll said: ‘We are absolutely delighted to experience this huge rise in visitors, which is a massive increase on last year’s numbers. Not only is this excellent news for the castle and the rest of Inveraray, it is also indicative of how popular Argyll has become as a serious holiday destination for both overseas and domestic visitors.’
