Description:
This is a VERY beautiful castle! It is even referred to as ‘The Pearl of the North’. Ballindalloch Castle has been much altered and enlarged over the centuries. The castle had to be repaired after it was plundered and burned by the Marquis of Montrose after the Battle of Inverlochy in 1645.
The same family has lived in the castle since its construction and Ballindalloch remains the home of the Macpherson-Grants.
