Go inside the red sandstone castle above the river, which reopened as a visitor attraction in 2026, with stories of the Highlands told across its towers.
Why it's a good date: It's new, so it's something to discover together, even if one of you grew up here. The castle grounds are free, and the view over the Ness from up there is worth the short climb on its own.
