Fernie Castle is an enlarged sixteenth-century tower house in north-eastern Fife.
Situated just east of the village of Letham,[1] it was originally in an L-plan layout. The castle was later extended to include a three-floor block which included a round tower at one of the corners.[2]
The castle is now primarily used as a hotel which also caters to weddings.[3]
