Kinnaird Castle - Macduff Tower

Photo: Kinnaird Castle - private home with holiday accommodation

Macduff Tower is a second-floor apartment within Kinnaird Castle, near Brechin in Angus. The property sleeps four across two bedrooms: a king-size four-poster and two singles, each with its own bathroom featuring a roll-top bath and shower. Downstairs, a living room with Freeview television and DVD player connects to a separate dining room and a kitchen fitted with electric oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher, and washing machine. Bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and electricity are included; the building is heated by biomass central heating. A travel cot, highchair and stairgate are available on request.

The estate spans 7,000 acres of low-lying countryside between Montrose Basin and Brechin, adjoining the River Southesk. Guests have access to walking paths throughout the grounds, leading to follies, riverside views and a private lake. The river itself holds salmon and freshwater pearls, while the wider estate supports red squirrels, woodpeckers, owls and ospreys. Fishing can be arranged with the owner. Beyond the immediate grounds, quiet roads cross the estate suitable for cycling, and there is a private tennis court. Two cars can park on site. One well-behaved pet stays free. No smoking is permitted. The property has a natural water supply from a spring, and an unfenced lake lies within the grounds.

We had the most wonderful stay in the Glen Apartment at Kinnaird Castlr while attending a national sled dog race with my two children. I’ll admit, because it’s a castle I expected it might be a bit cold… but I couldn’t have been more wrong! From the moment you walk into the stairwell and head up the stairs, it’s beautifully warm and welcoming. The apartment itself is absolutely stunning – spotlessly clean, spacious, and very comfortable. It easily sleeps four with a lovely double bedroom and a sofa bed in the living room, which worked perfectly for us. The views from the windows are breathtaking and the castle grounds are just as beautiful. And for anyone with pets, it’s wonderfully dog-friendly – they really think of everything, even providing large sheets to cover furniture so your pets can be cozy without leaving hair behind. It truly couldn’t have been a more perfect place to stay. Five stars from us and we would definitely return!

Beautiful location and apartment. We had a lovely Christmas here. The rooms were very large and well appointed and we had excellent fun searching the grounds for the 7 follies. We will return again!

What a beautiful estate filled with really wonderful people. The castle itself was stunning. We stayed in the Lauderdale Apartment and it was very comfortable. I wish we could have stayed longer. Lovely walks, super peaceful and so beautiful. Everyone we interacted with was absolutely lovely. I hope to visit again.

I is great place for quiet walk. There are few herds of deer in the area to be seen. Lots of pheasant freely roaming around so dogs should be kept on closely monitoring all the time.
