This spacious holiday property, set over three floors and furnished with antiques, is a wing of Brodie Castle, a 16th-century tower house which is set in 175 acres of parkland.

Today, the castle is filled with art and antiques, including French furniture, Chinese porcelain, 19th-century English watercolours and early 20th-century works. There is also an impressive library which contains around 6000 volumes. Guests have access to the extensive grounds and can explore the many woodland walks or observe the varied wildlife, including red squirrel, roe deer, pine marten, hare and badgers. For bird watchers, there are two bird hides situated next to the pond. Also on site is a tea room/shop, picnic area and a children’s play area.
