Dalnaglar Castle is set upon a naturally elevated site in the heart of Glenshee, which translates as ‘The Valley of Peace’ and is known locally as ‘the fairy glen’. Originally an 18th century hunting lodge, Dalnaglar Castle was commissioned by Lord Clyde, Queen Victoria’s banker, and designed by Her Majesty’s architect from Balmoral.
The Castle is a wonderful location for large groups, as well as a superb venue for short breaks, anniversaries, family birthdays and reunions. Situated in a tranquil and peaceful glen, it is also a great location for business meetings and retreats.
Public rooms include a comfortable sitting room, well stocked library, elegant dining room over-looking the garden and a reception room, all with their own fireplaces. Dalnaglar can sleep up to 18 guests. Each bedroom is individually designed and has a character all its own. Guests have exclusive use of the castle and grounds.
The estate is situated on the banks of the River Shee and has a beat just under a mile offering excellent salmon and trout fishing. There is also trout fishing on our private Loch. A ghillie is available upon request.
For the outdoor enthusiast there is clay pigeon shooting on the estate, hill walking to experience the breathtaking scenery. Quad and mountain biking, falconry and pony trekking can be arranged locally. There are also a couple of paddle boards for guest’s use on the loch. The local distillery, Persie, can also offer tutored gin tastings!
For the golfer there are over 100 golf courses in the surrounding area, including Gleneagles, Carnoustie, St Andrews and Rosemount.
Driven or walked up days, and duck flighting can be arranged. Red deer and roe deer stalking can be arranged on nearby estates.
Set amidst the atmospheric Scottish Highlands, Dalnaglar Castle provides the perfect escape from the strains of everyday life.
