Had to go check out out Castle Lachlan after watching GMMore. The new castle was only built in the late 18th century and resembles a manor more than a castle. The old one is pretty dilapidated. You can book a room there for a week for £2,250-2,800, plus a £500 deposit. Bit out of my budget.

Old Castle Lachlan is currently undergoing expensive and specialist conservation work. When the work is completed we will all be able to enjoy exploring the castle inside and out once more.

Until the project is completed, enjoy the New Castle Lachlan . . .

Rhett should definitely check out: http://www.maclachlanwusa.com

The WIKI listing for Rhett's surname includes a mention in the PEOPLE section:

Rhett McLaughlin, American internet personality, part of the comedy duo Rhett and Link

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McLaughlin_(surname)

McLaughlin or MacLaughlin /məˈklɔːxlᵻn/ is a surname of Irish and Scottish origin. The name is an Anglicisation of the Gaelic Mac Lochlainn ("son of Lochlann").

The McLaughlins, originally belonging to the Cenél nEógain, are closely related to the O'Neill dynasty. Two kings of Ireland were Domnall Ua Lochlainn and Muirchertach Mac Lochlainn.

The Clan Maclachlan of Scotland are also related to the O'Neills but in fact are not of precisely the same lineage as the Irish McLaughlins. They are commonly confused in any case.

In Gaelic, the word Lochlainn means 'of the lakes' and refers to the Scandinavians (Vikings) from the West of Norway. See Lochlann

Further adding to the confusion, some of the Irish McLaughlins were originally O'Melaghlins – descendants of the King of Meath and later High King of Ireland, Máel Sechnaill mac Domnaill (Máel Sechnaill II).
