Balvaird Castle is a fine example of a late-medieval Scottish tower house, built about 1495 by Sir Andrew Murray after his marriage to Margaret Barclay. The name comes from the Gaelic Baile a’ Bhàird (“Town of the Bard”), and the site incorporates earth-work defenses from earlier fortifications. Over time, gatehouses, courtyards, gardens and orchards were added (notably in 1567) and the Murray family held the property until moving to Scone Palace in 1658. In modern times it’s a scheduled monumen

Tucked away in the rolling hills of Perth and Kinross, Balvaird Castle has long been a peaceful, quiet retreat—one of my favourite spots to visit. But soon, that might change!

This pretty wee tower is Balvaird Castle, not far from Perth but even closer to Glenfarg. It's a typical L-shaped tower, in fantastic condition considering it's been abandoned for a long while and if Historic Scotland was somebody to fix it up and live there, then give me a call! Not many folk visit Balvaird, the interior of the castle is closed at the moment anyway, but lots will visit nearby Scone Palace - home to the Earls of Mansfield. This is where those Earls started, back when they were j

CASTLE LEATHERS 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 “Castle Leathers” in the Outlander prequel series Blood of My Blood is actually Balvaird Castle, a real medieval tower house in Perthshire, Scotland, used as the imposing home for the character Lord Simon Fraser (played by Tony Curran). The name “Castle Leathers” is a fictionalized version, referencing a historical but long-gone castle in Inverness, while Balvaird serves as the on-screen estate for the controversial Lord Lovat in the prequel. #scotland #reels #outl

Inside a fairytale caste - Belvoir Castle tour. I’ve shared a few clips of the wonderful Belvoir Castle recently, but this one is a compilation of several of its interior spaces. This short tour will hopefully give you a taste of what to expect when you visit this opulent country house. Pronounced “Beaver,” meaning “beautiful view” in French, this castle appears to have been plucked straight from a fairytale. There has been a Belvoir Castle on this site since just after the Norman Invasion of En

The castle was built for Sir Andrew Murray and Dame Margaret Barclay and has been extended and altered over the years, with significant courtyard buildings added around 1567. #scotland #scottishscenery #castle #castlesofscotland #history #forgottenhistory #travel #explore #discover #discoverscotland"
