Exploring the roots of the West Highland White TerrierPoltalloch, located in Scotland, which feeds directly into the Atlantic Ocean. It is more of an estate than a village, with about half a dozen houses scattered alongside the large estate of the Malcolm family. This is where Colonel Malcolm lived with his "Poltalloch Eleven" of Westie's when he organized the official recognition of the Westie breed in 1905.
Duntrune Castle dates back to the 1th century. If you want to visit, Robin Malcolm rents out cottages on a weekly basis... :)- |
If
you went to Poltalloch today you will see the ruins of the mansion, and,
further down the road, a private drive leading to Duntrune Castle. Colonel
Malcolm's grandson, Robin Malcolm, currently lives in Duntrune Castle. He is
the current chief of the Clan Malcolm. Unfortunately there are no Westie's
living there.
