About this property

Old Duffus Farmhouse on Scottish Estate - stunning castle views

Old Duffus Farmhouse, sleeping 8, is a traditional stone farmhouse on family run Duffus Estate and is just 5 miles from Elgin. This spacious yet homely property is ideal for families or larger groups. It is surrounded by fields with unrivalled views directly across to the ruins of Duffus Castle - an ideal place to retreat and relax. Just imagine a stroll through castle ruins whilst the sun sets across fields of golden barley or a sunny evening bbq or fire pit with a killer castle view! 3 of the 4 bedrooms and the living room all have unbeatable, south facing views of Duffus Castle which makes this a truly unique place to stay.

You enter via a large porch which is great for storing boots, coats, golf clubs and other outdoor kit.

The two generously proportioned, double bedrooms (both with king sized double beds) are situated on the ground floor, along with both of the bathrooms, therefore making it easier for those with more limited mobility. The bathrooms have been renovated to a high standard - each has a walk in shower and the larger bathroom also boasts a beautiful roll top bath.

The two twin bedrooms are located on the first floor, along with a wee snug. The snug is an ideal room for children/teens. It also has a desk so is good for those who may need to shut themselves away to work.

The large, bright sitting room with a wood burning stove for cosy nights in. We provide complimentary logs from the Estate for the stove and the fire bowl outside.

The farm house kitchen has a big central table seating 8 - perfect for those long, lazy dinners with family or friends. It is fully equipped so ideal for those who like to cook when they are away. There is a separate utility room with plenty of space to dry laundry.

The grassed, south facing garden also benefits from views of Duffus Castle. It has seating for 8, BBQ and a fire pit.

Please note, Old Duffus Farmhouse is situated beside some barns which are still occasionally used by the local farmer so the odd tractor may pass by the house.

We welcome up to 2 dogs - there are lots of lovely dog walks in the area, including exploring the ruins of Duffus Castle on your door step to the miles of quiet sandy beaches along the nearby Moray Firth.
There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a microwave. A Smart television along with a DVD player are provided for your entertainment. The bathroom has a shower and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a desk and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access, onsite parking, and a car charging station.
