Banff located on the River Deveron started life as a port in the 1100s.
Though no longer a commercial port, the harbor still serves leisure traffic and the area is well worth a look.
Banff itself contains a variety of fascinating architecture in a number of contrasting styles.
Georgian architecture abounds in the "upper town".
Within the Deveron Valley you will find Duff House, a tourist attraction widely thought to be one of Britain's finest
Georgian houses.
These days Duff House serves as part of the National Gallery of Scotland
and houses a range of art treasures and superbly furnished rooms.
