Standing where part of the castle collapsed into the sea

Dunluce Castle
Just a few minutes drive from Giant's Causeway brought us to Dunluce Castle, perched on a craggy cliff overlooking the sea. We walked over a bridge from the mainland and explored the ruins of the castle built in the 13th century. We could see hexagonal stones in the walls - sourced from Giant's Causeway. It was purportedly deserted in 1639 when a portion of the kitchen fell into the sea and the castle's mistress insisted on leaving! I would have stayed... the views are spectacular.
