That would have been my second answer. 

I only know the Edinburgh one because I used to work for a Scottish financial services company, and their head office is in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle.  When we from the Bristol branch travelled to Edinburgh for team meetings, I was so envious of one of my colleagues there: her desk overlooked, through a full height picture window, the entire castle.  How inspiring is that, for a workstation? 

CfN.

Is 2 Duirinish? I think I've only been twice, once by road, but it seems to be popular with Highland cattle and looks like it's been plonked in a stereotypical Scottish Highland landscape!

3. is obviously new, but there a are several new stations it might be - none of which I've seen, of course. First thought was Dalcross/Inverness Airport, because it has that look. But it's not, nor is it Kintore. Then there's Leven, known to have been visited, which does indeed have a round thingy a lot like the one in the picture. However, that has tiled paving ... but nearby there's Cameron Bridge, also on the Leven Rail Link. And that also has a "pebble" (?) that fits.
