Take your camera and hiking boots to this delightfully quirky 16th century castle tower house and enjoy some magnificent scenery and mountain walks.
Standing on the top of a steep bank, this is a typical Scottish tower house built to a very simple L-plan, with a main block of three storeys, a garret and a circular stairway. Whilst this 16th century castle became a ruin over the years it was fully restored in 1985 and is graded by the Scottish Tourist Board with four stars on a self-catering basis. Set in one acre of garden, the castle offers outstanding views over Strathspey and the Cairngorm mountains, and is perfect for smaller family groups on holiday, walkers and for groups of golfers.
