Description
The doorway at the upper right leads to the balcony. This being a 19th Century house, the ceilings are very high. I wouldn't want to climb those walls anyway. It'd be easy to damage a wall. Note the water damage. There was water dripping everywhere (it had been raining the previous week).

  Were each of those doorways on a separate level and the floors have disintegrated over time?

  Yes, and perhaps. You can see the square holes in the masonry where oak beams were installed to hold floorboards. In fact, you can see where the floors would have been from the masonry itself. I don't know if they got round to installing the floorboards, but the oak beams were definitely there and have rotted away since.

  rotted or stolen

  A valid question, methinks. I'd go for both, especially the lower ones (they'd be easier to remove). Then again, timber is heavy and plentiful on the mountain.

  Timber rots so quickly anyway.
