About NTS - Fyvie Castle

Fyvie Castle offers a blend of art, history, horticulture, and interactive experiences suitable for FITs, groups, and private events.

Located in the heart of Aberdeenshire, Fyvie Castle is an 800-year-old fortress and a fine example of Scottish Baronial Architecture. Rich in ghosts, legends, and folklore, the castle is also an art-lovers’ paradise, featuring works by Raeburn, Batoni, and Romney. Its extensive grounds include the Walled Garden of Scottish Fruits, home to the largest collection of Scottish fruits and vegetables. Fyvie Castle caters to both FIT and Group clients.
