Steeped in history, this Scottish castle – located 40 miles south of Edinburgh in the heart of the Ettrick Forest – is brimming with grandiose character. Built back in the 1530s, it was previously the ancient hunting ground of Scottish royalty up to the days of Mary Queen of Scots.
The castle is exclusively yours for the weekend and you get complete run of the grounds and the castle itself. With two kitchens this is self catering in style, however even pizza companies deliver to castles if none of you fancy taking on cooking responsibilities. Or alternatively catering can be added to your package.
As well as extensive grounds our Scottish castle hideaway comes complete with...
In the modern era the grounds make the perfect stag party playground, each day of your weekend we’ll bring activities to your manor with a choice of different activities to do gentlemanly battle over. Or if you want to travel further afield we can supply alternative activities to help decide who is King of the Castle for the weekend.
Other activities on site include; Whiskey tasting, Clay pigeon shooting, Fishing, Golf, Kayaking, Croquet

As with all our castle packages once the weekend is over you won’t have to check your Facebook page for photos as a reminder of your weekend, the guys will all be given a permanent reminder. Each attendee will become a “Lord” however as this castle lies north of the border it is only fitting that you can take the equivalent Scottish title of "Laird" if you wish. Simply specify the title you’d prefer when enquiring.
Our Lord of the Stags packages are unlike any other stag weekend out there, this is a chance to do something completely unique that you and the lads will be talking about for years. With your stately titles in place you can even create your own round table... we suggest you place beer in the middle of it so you can toast your fellowship properly.
If you’re organising the party on behalf of the groom this really is a surprise package that you’ll score serious brownie points for, after all it’s not every groom that heads off on his stag party, leaving home as a "Mr" and returning a "Lord".
Our castle packages are available as weekend or midweek packages, they are incredibly popular venues for wedding and corporate parties so it is best to enquire early to check availability on your chosen dates.
"This is a spectacular location and a total escape for all the lads, you really will live like kings, do battle over great activities and come home with the ultimate stag souvenir."
