 View All Scottish holiday cottages in Deeside

If you want to stay in an idyllic Scottish castle then this is a perfect place for a vacation. Set in beautiful Deeside, near Turriff, this is a perfect castle with romantic holiday accommodation within. It was the ancestral home of Clan Hay and was in the Hay family for the last 650 years. It was until recently the home of Captain and Mrs Hay of Delgatie and houses the Clan Hay Centre. Mary Queen of Scots stayed at Delgatie in 1562 after the Battle of Cirriechie - you can even visit her bedroom.

Delgatie Castle dates from 1050 but was rebuilt (like many Scottish castles) in the 16th century when greater fortifications were needed. There are fine 16th century painted ceilings still on view. The estate is picturesque and peaceful with delightful gardens and is a wonderful base for touring the north east of Scotland and Deeside. If you are looking for a vacation in a castle in Scotland then this is the place to stay! It is very romantic accommodation in a castle and the main bedroom has a four poster bed.

Perfectly located to explore all that this beautiful area of Scotland has to offer - Deeside has glorious castles (including Balmoral Castle - Scottish home of the Royal family), superb golf courses, great walking, malt whisky distilleries and many other tourist attractions. There are also excellent restaurants and pubs, fabulous art galleries and museums in Aberdeen, and lovely Deeside to explore. Dalgatie Estate has beautiful grounds and nearby Turriff is a pretty village.

Accommodation:
The self catering castle apartment is lovely and the main bedroom has a stunning four-poster bed and delightful views over the estate. There is a further lovely twin room and a smaller bedroom with bunk beds (perfect if you are a family wanting a castle vacation).

The kitchen is large and well-equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, fridge/frezer and washer/dryer. It is a feature of the holiday flat as it has a barrel vaulted ceiling, and is situated in a very old part of the castle. There is a separate sitting room, bathroom and WC.
