Castle Accommodation
Guests stay in self-catering apartments within the 1860s castle, including the Tower Rooms with private access to a rooftop terrace for 360-degree views of the surrounding countryside. Each apartment has a fully fitted kitchen, bathrobes, Freesat TV, and a log fire in the main living room. The maisonette spans three floors with a turret sitting room and a free-standing bath positioned for views over the fields toward the sea.
Estate & Wildlife
The 5,000-acre estate offers extensive walks where guests can spot White Tailed Eagles, Golden Eagles, Otters, and seals from the coastal paths. Highland cows roam the grounds, and the standing stones are a short walk from the castle. The estate also has its own coffee shop and art gallery open to guests and visitors.
On-Site Dining & Experiences
The Glengorm Coffee Shop serves homemade lunches, cakes, and local produce including cheeses, meat, and pastries. Complimentary whisky tasting is offered to guests, with sample bottles of Tobermory whisky provided by the hosts. The coffee shop also stocks fresh lamb shoulders and other regional ingredients for self-catering.
Historic Setting & Architecture
The castle was built in the 1860s and retains its original character with a turret accessible by spiral stairs, log fires in communal spaces, and panoramic views of the Atlantic and surrounding islands. The building is located on a cliffside 5 miles northwest of Tobermory. Guests can explore the castle's history through the book collection and the owners' local recommendations.
Family-Friendly Spaces
Spacious self-catering apartments accommodate families with multiple bedrooms, a private bathroom, and a well-equipped kitchen. The estate provides board games, puzzles, and a picnic area with outdoor furniture. Children can walk the trails, see lambs and highland cows, and use the on-site coffee shop for meals.
