There's this incredible castle in Aberdeenshire that I've always loved visiting. It's called Huntly Castle, and it's got such a fascinating history. The place has been around since the 12th century, originally as a wooden motte-and-bailey fortress before being rebuilt in stone. What makes Huntly Castle really stand out are the intricate carvings and inscriptions all over the walls. The stonework is so detailed; it’s like the building itself is telling you a story. You can still see the remnants

Crathes Castle in Aberdeenshire is a strong contender for one of the best autumn walks in Scotland! A castle standing against a backdrop of rolling hills and set within its own glorious gardens, Crathes Castle, Garden & Estate NTS is every inch the classic tower house. The Burnetts, who lived here for over three hundred years, had roots in the area dating back to 1323, when they were granted land by Robert the Bruce. Alexander Burnett built the castle in the sixteenth century, creating an intric

Welcome to Fyvie Castle in Aberdeenshire, one of the grandest, and most haunted castles in Scotland. Built in the 13th century, Fyvie is said to have been cursed by legendary prophet, Thomas the Rhymer after the castle gates slammed shut in his face. That curse has given the castle a rocky history, collecting ghosts along the way. The Green Lady was Lilias Drummond when alive, married to the cruel Alexander Seton. All he wanted was an heir to pass his wealth onto, losing patience after Lilias ga

If you’re planning on visiting all the historic castles in Scotland, here’s one you should know about… Crathes Castle in Banchory is on the Aberdeenshire Castle Trail – arguably the castle crawl capital! This sixteenth-century tower house was the home of the Burnetts. Their roots in the area date back to 1323, when they were granted land by none other than Robert the Bruce. Inside, admire the painted ceilings, treasures and turrets. In the garden, you won’t miss the massive yew hedges, thought t

Are there any castles in Scotland where Mary Queen of Scots HASN'T spent the night? Yes! Huntly Castle. In 1562, Mary Queen of Scots decided not to visit Huntly Castle, a noble residence renovated by George Gordon, the 4th Earl of Huntly. During her royal tour in the north, she had a complex power struggle with the Gordons, fueled by religion, land, and reputation. George Gordon's son even aspired to marry Mary by force if necessary. When Mary reached Inverness, she bypassed Huntly's castle but

We always get asked if our castles have any hidey-holes... Castle Fraser in Aberdeenshire may be an over-achiever in that department with trapdoors, secret staircases and spy holes galore! It's one of the most impressive-looking castles in our care with a wonderful walled garden for wandering – and don't miss the tearoom and used bookshop in the courtyard! The original core dates from 1450, making it one of the oldest tower houses in Scotland. Castle Fraser, Garden & Estate NTS was a family home

I’m always surprised when I discover somewhere new in Scotland. We travel around quite a bit, so you’d think by now I’ve seen most places… but then you find somewhere like this. Drum Castle really surprised me. It’s just outside Aberdeen near Banchory, and somehow it had never been on my radar until now. The Royal Forest and Tower of Drum were gifted to the Irvine family by Robert the Bruce in 1323, and the family lived here for more than 650 years. Later, a Jacobean mansion house was added, and
