Glengorm Castle, Category B listed castle in Argyll and Bute, Scotland.
The castle features tall towers and crenellations characteristic of Scottish baronial architecture, situated on a prominent position overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
James Forsyth commissioned the construction of Glengorm Castle in 1860, but died in a riding accident before its completion in 1863.
The name derives from 'Gleann Gorm', meaning blue glen in Scottish Gaelic, suggested by a local elder during the castle's construction period.
Located 6 kilometers northwest of Tobermory, the castle operates as a family residence with a café and shop situated in the former stables.
The castle offers views of multiple Scottish islands including Coll, Rùm, Canna, Barra, and Uist when weather conditions permit clear visibility.
