With the looks of a French chateau, this large classically elegant south facing country house, built in the 1800’s, on the site of a medieval castle, is situated in its own grounds of 1,500 acres surrounded by mixed woodlands and paddocks. A charming family home, on offer is a dining hall, an elegant drawing room, sitting room, secondary sitting room, TV room and country style kitchen. Additionally, there is an informal games room with snooker table and a “party room”, which is ideal for hosting small events. On the two floors above are a selection of bedrooms, shower rooms and bathrooms to sleep up to 23 adults and 2 children. There is parking for 12 cars or more. Only a short drive from Inverness and Nairn, this large holiday home is perfect for occasions, weddings and family gatherings alike.
We rented the house for the weekend to celebrate my Dad's 80th Birthday, we needed somewhere large enough to accomodate extended family and a bit special for the 'big day'.We were not disappointed!. It has the grandeur of a large country home but was also very homely. For those looking for 5* decor then this place is probably not for you as some parts could do with a little updating, but for us it just added to the charm of an old house. Our family group had a large variation in ages and there was something for everyone. Brilliant house for hide n' seek for the kids!!. And enough sitting rooms to suit all old and young alike. The gardens were beautiful during our stay ... a stroll through the bluebells are a must! The kitchen had everything we needed although the electric hob took a bit of getting used to!! and the dining room in the entrance hall perfect for sharing dinner and good chat. We had a memorable weekend and my Dad got to be lord of the Manor which he loved. Would recommend.
Thank you for your feedback, we're thrilled you weren't disappointed and rated the house excellent, finding it grand yet homely. We're glad that everyone enjoyed the charm of this more traditional mansion and having visited myself, I couldn't agree more - it's perfect for hide and seek given the scale of the building! Sounds like you had a very memorable trip overall and we hope to welcome you back again in the future ..
Scott Castle holidays site is really easy to use and all the girls I communicated with via email were very helpful and quick to respond to any questions/emails. Would recommend this site if you are looking for that 'something special' for us it was my Dad's 80th birthday.
Thanks so much for your comments, we were delighted to help with the birthday celebrations and we hope to be of assistance again in the future. Great that you found our new website easy to use!
Fabulous house, well equipped, very enjoyable stay.
So glad that you all had an enjoyable stay at this Large Holiday House, finding it well equipped as well! Please don't hesitate to get in touch should you ever wish to re book in the future.

Very spacy castle with more than enough rooms for a party of 8, well equipped kitchen and beautiful suurounding. Coming home by driving through the rhododendron alley is more than impressive.
We agree, this impressive highland house is very spacious with extensive grounds, and the cosy drawing room with open fire is perfect to relax in after a day out sightseeing!
Very kind and competent service, via e- mail as well sa via fone

WoW, I could almost leave it there! We travelled for my hubbies 40th with a huge party of friends as a surprise for him. The house was indeed a surprise, so big and beautiful, we fell in love with it, and the amazing grounds that helped us walk off some very sore heads :) Regal and imposing and full of so many rooms inside we were still discovering them 3 days into our stay! The house is very comfortable, not stuffy and you felt you could totally relax and not worry about getting crumbs on the floor. Oozing with character and I don't mind telling you a little spooky at times all added to the adventure we shared there. Amazing family kitchen, larder and local supermarkets deliver. Polly from the house took our huge shopping in and set it out as we were on the train from london, nothing was too much trouble. If you are thinking of going then do, I want to go back again, but perhaps live there :) Thanks ***
It certainly sounds like you all had a fabulous time and enjoyed your husbands birthday trip! We will certainly pass your comments onto the owners who will also be pleased to hear you enjoyed your time at this amazing property, great to hear you found it spacious and comfortable for all of the family. I am sure you all have some lovely memories to share now too from the sounds of it!
We look forward to hearing from you if you ever wish to return .. it sounds like it may already be on the cards :)
Great service from the Scotts Castle team and the
house themselves!
Thank you for your excellent feedback! We are pleased to of been able to help with your celebratory trip and hope to be of assistance again in the future!

Two kissues to report:
(i) There was a boiler malfunction which resulted in no hot water for the showers in a few bedrooms
(ii) Surprisingly at this time of year there was a number of mice about - we had to get a trap for one in the kitchen
Thank you for your kind words regarding the service of Scotts Castle Holidays. I understand that the boiler went out during your stay and that it was re-lit once you informed the owners. Whilst this was unlucky - it was dealt with swiftly. As for the mouse, it is an occupational hazard with holiday houses that are not always occupied. The owners have been informed and they have stepped up their efforts again to keep out the little blighters. Thank you for your feedback and we look forward to helping you in the future.

Very old Aga loses heat quickly and is not ideal for a party of 15, the small electric ovens saved the day but they are small and the handle of the top oven has been broken for some time I suspect. The house was otherwise ideal for a business weekend.
Thank you for your kind words about us and I can let you know that a new and improved website is in development and will be on-line very shortly, which will hopefully be more attractive. With regards to cooking facilities at the house, they do adopt the belt and braces attitude, and have the AGA and the electric hobs available to all guests. I have forwarded your additional comments for an update at the property. Thank you again.
Property Manager
All personnel charming, I just have a feeling that the website is looking a little dated and is not immediately attractive (very subjective I appreciate)

Very good service - eg quick response to any e-mail queries. Only thing we didn't like was the charge for using a credit card, in particular, for the good housekeeping deposit.
