Guthrie Castle

Guthrie Castle

The castle was originally constructed as a tower house by Sir David Guthrie, Treasurer and Lord Justice-General of Scotland in 1468. A house was later built beside the tower and the two were linked by a further expansion in 1848, designed by David Bryce. The castle was held by the Guthrie family until 1983 with the death of Colonel Ivan Guthrie, upon which it was sold to an American businessman, who restored the castle. The grounds contain a 9-hole golf course and a garden that has a 160 year old hedge in the shape of celtic cross. The tour consists of a series of 360 photographs of the exterior and interior of all rooms of the castle, as well as views of the garden, Loch, and wedding chapel of Guthrie Village Church. Four drop down venues in the top right corner provide access to all available rooms. A menu bar in the bottom left corner can be used to move the image, but it can also be dragged by the mouse. Accessibility note: The Castle is today a private home.
