Rooted in history, made for living

EXPERIENCE THE MAJESTY OF SCOTLAND in a GRAND COUNTRY HOUSE THAT FEELS LIKE HOME

The castle

At the heart of Kincardine Estate, Kincardine Castle has long been a place for gathering and hospitality.

Still a family home, the castle today becomes yours to enjoy for weddings, corporate retreats and private stays, set within the landscape of Royal Deeside overlooking the River Dee. Just thirty-five minutes from Aberdeen Airport yet surrounded by the gardens, woodland and farmland of the 3,000-acre estate, it offers both the privacy of exclusive use and the atmosphere of a home that remains very much alive.

Exclusive Use

Stay with Us

The castle accommodates up to 22 guests overnight and offers a variety of spaces for gatherings throughout the house and estate.

Ten double or twin rooms each have ensuite bathrooms, alongside two single bedrooms with ensuite or private facilities. Two further single bedrooms with private bathrooms are available for staff or support teams when required.

The Wider Estate

Beyond the house, guests are free to explore the surrounding gardens and parkland, from the lawns and woodland garden to the beautifully restored Walled Garden.

The wider estate extends across farmland, woodland and the banks of the River Dee, offering space to walk, explore and experience the landscape that has shaped life at Kincardine Estate for generations.

For larger celebrations, a number of carefully positioned marquee sites within the park and gardens allow gatherings to expand while remaining closely connected to the castle and its surroundings.

About Us

A family estate, cared for across generations.

Kincardine Estate has been in family ownership since the late nineteenth century and remains both a home and a working landscape. Today the castle sits at the heart of an estate that extends across woodland, farmland and the banks of the River Dee, where farming, forestry and hospitality exist alongside one another.

Guided by a long-term view of stewardship, the estate is managed with care for the land, the community and the generations who will shape its future.
