Fyvie Castle, Garden & Estate
About this place
An imposing 800-year-old fortress, with Raeburn portraits on the walls and wildfowl in the loch
- Admire the impressive portrait collection, including works by Raeburn, Batoni, Romney, Gainsborough, Opie, Lawrence and Hoppner.
- Discover the racquets court and bowling alley, as well as the ice house, bird hide and restored earth closet.
- Don’t miss the grisly death mask of a hanged murderer on display in the library.
- Enjoy a walk with family and friends around the beautiful grounds.
This magnificent fortress in the heart of Aberdeenshire is a sterling example of Scottish Baronial architecture. Inside, the rooms are filled with antiquities, armour and lavish oil paintings. Out in the grounds the grandeur continues, with a picturesque lake and an unusual glass-roofed racquets court.
Ghosts, legends and folklore are all woven into the tapestry of Fyvie’s 800-year-old history. But stories aside, we do know William the Lion was at Fyvie around 1214 and later Robert the Bruce and Charles I were among its royal guests.
Visit, and lose yourself in the glory of Fyvie’s landscape and the richness of its past.
