I have been here many times, mostly when younger, and this is my Family, Clan Castle. The Urquhart family goes way back into ancient Clan times and the Urquhart Clan always looked at this place, since 1607, as a place of the family since John Urquhart built it starting in 1604. I started staying here, a few years ago and this year, October 2023, brought 5 couples with me for a stay. The grounds are always wonderful and William has created a wonderful place for people to stay! Elisabetta is a terrific Host and Manager and the Family is very fortunate to have her. The location to all of the favorite places along the coast are close. Banff, Nairn, Gardenstown, Fraserburgh and Aberdeen are all very close. Turriff is a very lovely town and just a few miles away. Great Distilleries are nearby also, including my favorite, Glendronach. I highly recommend as a classic Castle stay for your next adventure in Aberdeenshire!!
