We live in Scotland where we have renovated a castle for use as a holiday rental. We continue to improve it year on year. We have two grown up children and two beautiful grand daughters. We have always had dogs and although we have just lost our last one, we recognise how important it is for all the family to holiday together.

We love travelling and exploring new places, we became involved in holiday homes because of our own love for self catering accommodation and to try to provide that little bit extra or bit different. Each year we try to improve the houses as much for our benefit as for our guests, as our family and ourselves enjoy the house and surrounding area.

New walled garden, still in the early stages of planting but providing a superbly sheltered spot. New estate fencing has been erected to replace the old Victoria fencing that was bent down and broken by livestock.

we had been overseas on and off for 10 years and John has now retired and we wanted a new project and this one came along.

we fell in love with the area and the history of the castle
