Ballindalloch Castle

Ballindalloch Castle, known as the "pearl of the north", is a magnificent castle in Banffshire. It has been the family home of Macpherson-Grant baronets and their family since 1546.

The first tower of the Z plan castle was built in 1546. After it was plundered and burned by James Graham, Marquess of Montrose, it was restored in 1645, and extended in 1770 by General James Grant. (Read more)
