Play Scotland’s most iconic golf courses and then return to your own fortress.

No sooner have you arrived at your 17th-century Scottish castle, your private staff are waiting to meet your every need; at the five-star Turin Castle, you choose the experience you wish to have. You could be greeted by the sound of bagpipes before hosting your own feast complete with highland dancing, before taking a dram of the finest Scottish whisky in front of the open fire. The next morning, after waking to views of the 20 acres of beautifully manicured gardens and the distant Angus Glens, you ready yourself for the first round of golf.

The options include Scotland’s finest, with St Andrews, Carnoustie, Gleneagles, Royal Aberdeen and Trump International anything from 20 minutes to 75 minutes away, all within easy access. Alternatively, stroll along the sandy shores of nearby Lunan Bay Beach, get taken to the very best fishing spots, or take a tour of the best whisky distillers Scotland, or indeed the world, has to offer.
