Episode Details

Inverness Castle is in financial crisis, facing a $1.6 million shortfall after a $47 million renovation failed to deliver projected profits — now 25 jobs are at risk as the attraction shifts to a seasonal model with slashed hours. Highland Council has pledged $2.5 million to stabilize operations, while CEO Steve Walsh pushes a five-year growth plan targeting 15% annual visitor growth through smarter marketing and enhanced experiences. Staff cuts have been described as “very tough,” and officials are reviewing contracts, pricing, and visitor feedback to turn things around — all while hoping to rebuild a sustainable future for Scotland’s historic landmark.
