"west highlands of Scotland" is there a suitable link?
Not to the west highlands, as far as I can see, but I've pushed in a Scottish Highlands link
Four-para lead seems a bit over the top for an article of this length, I'd aim for two.
I've folded the first two into one, but the line about the station doesn't seem to quite fit into the flow of either. We could lose that altogether I suppose, but it seems an interesting fact worth keeping in the lead.
"Member of Parliament" link?

"outbreak of World War II the castle " no need to link the war, and I'd put a comma after II.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:11, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"operating until its closure" well, yes.  Perhaps "operating in this capacity until its closure" or similar?
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:11, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
On GMaps, it looks more like it's east of Skye.
Good observation. Fixed.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:11, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"the Scottish baronial style" consistent: b or B?
Done. I've made it consistently b, per the linked article title.
"a category C listed building since " to hyphenate or not to hyphenate...
Hyphenated. And link made consistent too.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"The castle is served by Duncraig railway station, which is unstaffed and operated by Abellio ScotRail, lying between Stromeferry and Plockton on the Kyle of Lochalsh line.[8] " check out the last sentence of the first para of this section... some organisation required.
Fixed.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"Named Duncraig railway station, it was" overlinked.
Sentence tweaked. It doesn't really need to repeat the name anyway.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"education centre, for local" no need for that comma.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"outbreak of World War II in " again, no need to link.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
You link BBC1 but not BBC, I'd do both.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"business in Nottingham" in the lead you say this lot were from England so perhaps either link Nottingham or put "England" afterwards?  Global audience and all that...
I've linked it and also put England.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"operating a bed and breakfast (B&B) in the" overlinked.
Fixed.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"informed The Press and Journal newspaper" italics.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
Ref 6 publisher/website/author/work?
Done. It was published by the castle itself, but I've indicated as such.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
Same for ref 7.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
Ref 11 page number?
I don't have a copy of the paper book unfortunately, and the GBooks is some sort of e-book copy, with virtual page numbers that don't match the original. I have included "Chapter: Duncraig" in the hope that can point readers to the right place.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
"British Newspaper Archive" appears twice in ref 13.
Fixed.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
NYT is a subscription-only website, needs that url-access job.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
Ref 20 could add online source.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
Ref 24 en-dash instead of spaced hyphen.
Done.  — Amakuru (talk) 13:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
General: what's the approach to linking in refs of work/publisher etc?
I'm aiming mostly to link where possible, with the exception of works published by Duncraig Castle itself, because that would be a self-referential link! Hopefully this has now been made consistent.  — Amakuru (talk) 09:18, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: I've looked at all of the above now. Cheers  — Amakuru (talk) 09:18, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
I'm satisfied that this is a GA-level piece of work.  Promotion incoming! The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 09:36, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
