The castle was designed for Charles Drummond by Scottish architect James Gillespie Graham in 1810 and has had four custodians.
Glamping Site
Our Luxury cabins are inspiring, homely and authentic. We pride ourselves on respecting the nature around us and have designed our unique site to nestle quietly into its surroundings. A truly unique space with complete privacy.
I found these lovely old Roman numerals in the rubble. Made from cast iron with two prongs protruding at the back. Does anybody know/remember where these might have lived or been used for previously? #culdeesrenovation
What a fabulous first evening of Christmas wreath worships we had. Lots of fizz, mulled wine in posh China, Christmas music and lots of laughter. Thank you ladies and to the lovely Liz from @victoria___bloom xx #culdeesweddingsandevents #culdeesmansionhouseandcastle #wreathmakingworkshop #christmastime🎄
Steve explains how he will fit the new windows into the stone walls of the castle chapel #culdeesrenovation #chapeloflove #castlesofscotland
Our very talented joiner Steve is making new window frames to fit the very complicated trefoil shape of the chapel. These frames will be cut in half and the new lead light panels from @richwelsh sandwiched in between them. #renovationproject #channel4 #truenorthtv #culdeesrenovation #reno#houserenovation #scottishcastle #propertyrenovation #castlesofinstagram #restoration #castle #scottish #scottishhighland #lovescotland #renovationnation #heritagebuilding #traditionalrestoration #periodhouserenovation
