Location
Dalmunzie Castle in North Perthshire is located literally in the heart of Scotland. The central belt including Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, Fife, Dundee, Perth are all within two hours to the south. Royal Deeside, Aberdeen, the Grampians and Inverness lie within two hours to the north, while Tayside, Argyll and the West Highlands lie accessible to the west. Despite our proximity to most of Scotland, Dalmunzie’s charm lies in its perceived remoteness.
We are located off the A93 that connects Perthshire with Royal Deeside, which is the quietest road north in Scotland. Dalmunzie Castle is situated ona 6500 acre estate, with several hundred square miles of Highland wilderness behind and around it. Little wonder so many guests comment ‘they can get away from it all’ at Dalmunzie.
Our closest airport is Edinburgh (1 hour 45 minutes drive), while Scot Rail runs to Perth (1 hour drive) and buses run to Blairgowrie (30 minutes drive). Taxis run from both Perth & Blairgowrie to Dalmunzie. Helicopters can be chartered to arrive on our front lawn. A unique and exciting way to arrive!
