Property info

Dalmunzie Castle is a stunning quintessential laird’s mansion, turreted in the Scots Baronial style and standing proudly at the head of a 6500-acre estate, dating back to 1510. Dalmunzie is nestled in the heart of Glenshee and is surrounded by breathtaking mountains, glens and little rivers all a few steps away from the front door. The hotel has a golf course attached for those with a need to hit a few balls. Despite its isolation, Dalmunzie is less than two hours away from Edinburgh Airport and can be reached down a long 2-mile driveway just off the A93. Peace and tranquillity are features of life at Dalmunzie, with fires and lounges contributing to a relaxing haven. "It was so calm and so solitary... all seemed to breath freedom and peace, and to make one forget the world and its sad turmoils." Queen Victoria's diary, 1848, en-route to Balmoral via Glenshee
