The ruin of Dunalastair House, a baronial-style mansion, was built in 1862 by General Sir John Macdonald of Dalchosnie, the then owner of Dunalastair. Dunalastair estate had previously been the home of the Clan Donnachaidh of Scotland, which includes names such as Robertson, Duncan, and Reid, until the estate was sold in the 1850's by George Duncan Robertson, 18th Chief of Clan Donnachaidh.

The ruins now visible at Dunalatair are those of the third house to be built on the site. Alexander Robertson of Struan, a staunch Jacobite, lived in a house called the Hermitage which is thought to have been on the site of or near to the present Dunalastair House. This was destroyed by fire after the 1745 uprising.

A double tower house was then built on the site in around 1800 which was known as Mount Alexander. This was demolished by General MacDonald in the 1850's in order to build the present house. This is by far one of the spookiest castles in my opinion. Today the ruin is derelict, fenced up and inaccessible. Drones are also no longer permitted at the site.

Spending time in nature can actually reduce anxiety and depression, according to the 'Nature and Mental Health Report' produced by mental health charity Mind. It also states that being outside in natural light can lift a person's mood, especially during the winter. :)
