5.0 out of 5 stars A Romantic and Historical look!
This is a far cry from the usual dull travelogue. This set of three tapes has good history, beautiful footage of the castles, and a nice selection of some lesser known ones as well.

My personal favorite was Caerlaverock, the castle of the Maxwell family (my own clan). This was featured twice and the history was very interesting.

The narrator's voice and presentation...

2.0 out of 5 stars GREAT CINAMATOGRAPHY, HORRIBLE MUSIC!
AS I WATCHED THIS VIDEO, ONE THING BECAME APARENT. IT SEEMS THAT THE PRODUCERS COULD ONLY PROCURE THE RIGHTS TO ONLY ONE SONG FOR THIS VIDEO. IF YANNI TURNED ELECTRO-CELTIC, THATS WHAT IT SOUNDED LIKE AS THE LONE TITLE DRONED THROUGH THIS PRODUCTION. THIS WOULD BE A GREAT VIDEO IF YOU MUTED THE SOUND AND TURNED ON SOME TRADITIONAL CELTIC MUSIC.

The narrator's voice and presentation was dramatic and engaging. Go ahead, buy it! You'll be glad you did!

This review is from: Castles of Scotland [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This video has very nice photography that shows a lot of the places in the castles that you would not normally see.The main problem I had with it was I would have like to have known a little more of the history of the castles as it played.

This review is from: Castles of Scotland [VHS] (VHS Tape)
It would be nice to know which castles are featured in each of these videos. I would be more inclined to purchase one with that information.

Castle videos can be dull and some dwell on the designer interiors, but these are well made and lively! Very enjoyable.
