Castle Rental Details

This large elegant holiday property is a much loved Grade C listed family home, which in some parts dates back to the 1580's. Sitting in its own eight acre gardens, Drumblair provides a superb location for family holidays. The furnishings are to an extremely high standard and the exceptionally large and light kitchen/dining room, complete with an Aga, is the perfect for relaxing and enjoying informal evening meals.

The sleeping accommodation, suitable for 12 people, is both very comfortable and flexible as there are a number of adjoining rooms and bathrooms so that larger family parties can be fitted in as they wish.

The elegant house has a homely and welcoming atmosphere. The drawing room is delightful with an open fire and views across the garden. There is an additional sitting/TV room with a wood burning fire, next to the kitchen which is ideal for unwinding and warming up after a busy day in the fresh air!
