Description
Armadale Castle and Gardens, a historic estate on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, is being sold. The castle, a ruined former mansion, sits atop a hill overlooking the Sound of Sleat with stunning views of the Scottish mainland. The estate has a rich history, dating back to the 17th century, and has been home to the Macdonalds of Sleat. The castle has undergone several renovations and extensions, including a major rebuild after a fire in 1855. Today, the castle is in a derelict condition, but its sale offers a unique opportunity to restore it to its former glory. The estate also includes 40 acres of formal gardens, featuring a Victorian arboretum, ponds, and a walled garden. The gardens are a designated landscape and home to a variety of plant species from around the world. The estate also includes a gift shop and stables, which are listed as Grade A and Grade C, respectively. The sale of Armadale Castle and Gardens presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Scottish history and a unique and beautiful estate.
