10 bedrooms

The newly renovated Castle features eight large, custom-decorated bedrooms—each with king sized beds and en-suite bathrooms.

The resident gourmet Chef sources local ingredients to prepare three meals per day. And outside, the Estate’s vast Walled Garden and rolling green grounds provide a magnificent landscape for a stroll or sports.

The Estate

Owned by the Gordon Family, one of Scotland’s oldest, Gordon Castle was first erected in 1479 by George, 2nd Earl of Huntly, as a fortress for defence during the Scottish Reformation. Then in the late 18th century, Alexander, 4th Duke of Gordon, transformed the Estate to resemble a Scottish Versailles, with the gardens to match. During the Great War, the Castle and grounds were taken over by the Red Cross to be used as an Auxiliary Hospital for wounded soldiers returning from the trenches.
Today, Gordon Castle has been restored for a new chapter by Angus and Zara Gordon Lennox, welcoming guests to experience the breath-taking beauty and richness of its Highland heritage.
