Kemnay 2.8 miles.
Resting on the outskirts of Sauchen near Kemnay in Aberdeenshire is this unique, family-friendly, ground-floor maisonette of East Wing, in the remarkable National Trust for Scotland Castle Fraser. A duplex apartment in the countryside with access to a traditional walled garden, this beautiful abode is part of Castle Fraser, one of the largest tower houses in Scotland dating back to the 1450’s, now welcoming a family of four to discover old Scotland.
The castle is home to an impressive portrait collection and offers tours of the mediaeval Great Hall and Victorian bedrooms, whilst your holiday home is tucked away in the East Wing overlooking the spectacular grounds and castle courtyard.
On arrival, admire the picture-perfect exterior of Castle Fraser with its many turrets, before stepping inside your home from home.
To your right, a bright living/dining room offers leather sofas, a Smart TV, and a selection of books to put your feet up and relax with loved ones.
The unique, domed ceiling continues into the neighbouring, contemporary kitchen, featuring all the appliances you could need to whip up delicious meals, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four as you recount the days adventures.
Climb the spiral staircase to find two well-presented bedrooms, one king-size and a twin, both offering lovely views of the castle grounds. At the end of the hallway sits a pristine bathroom complete with a bath and shower over, perfect for freshening up after a day of exploring.
Start your day with a stroll around the grounds with a walled garden, and plenty of walking trails through the parkland, including Miss Bristow’s Trail and The Alton Brae Trail.
Why not get to know the Fraser family with a castle tour to discover family portraits, ornaments, and mementos, each with their own fascinating story? If you can tear yourself away, the village of Kemnay is nearby to dine at Cafe 83 or The Burnett Arms, whilst you can stock up at the convenience stores and farm shop.
Pack your clubs for a round of golf at Kemnay Golf Club or escape to Bennachie, a popular choice for hill walkers hoping to see Scotland's woodland trails and moorland views! Alternatively, Cairngorms National Park guarantees an unforgettable day out, whether that's hiking up Ben Macdui, sailing across a loch, or cycling through spectacular scenery.
For a change of pace, spend the day in the port city of Aberdeen with plenty of attractions, pubs, and eateries to choose from.
Your superb location puts you within easy reach of numerous National Trust for Scotland gems, the first being the 17th-century Pitmedden Garden & Museum of Farming Life, with its five miles of vibrant renaissance gardens, wildlife rich woodland trails and insight into agricultural history, along with the stunning 17th-century Leith Hall, well-known for its garden boasting exceptional views over Aberdeenshire and the surrounding countryside, and a decadent interior with military exhibition and a fascinating insight into the Leith-Hay family history.
Other National Trust for Scotland properties within close proximity include, Crathes Castle, Drum Castle, Craigievar Caste, Haddo House and Fyvie Castle.
