Duart Castle Website

Over 700 years of history

Duart is a 13th Century fortress, and home of the Clan Maclean, and enjoys one of the most spectacular and unique positions on the West Coast of Scotland.

The present Clan Chief, Sir Lachlan Maclean, wanted to make the story of Duart Castle more widely available, and to show potential visitors the beauty and drama of both the Castle and the island of Mull, on which it is situated.

The story of Duart Castle is also the story and history of the Clan Maclean, and Sir Lachlan Maclean wanted to convey some of that information to a wider audience.

”PyrusMalus helped us with design, answered our queries and solved our concerns...”

Designed by PyrusMalus

PyrusMalus designed, developed, and delivered a website which provides an introduction to the history of Duart Castle and the Clan Maclean, and shows some of the breathtaking scenery that awaits visitors to the island.

”...we have a final product that's easy to use. We are very satisfied!” Sir Lachlan Maclean

English? Francais? Deutsch?

In order to attract more European visitors to the castle, the website is now also available in French, and German, proving that website accessibility is not just about catering to guests with specific requirements, but also to non-English-speaking guests.

Interactive Family Tree

The history of the chiefs of the Clan Maclean stretches back as far as 1174, and can be explored on the Duart Castle website with the aid of an interactive family tree. This page, constructed in Flash, allows guests to the site to navigate the family tree.
