Background Boath House has a distinguished and atmospheric past that perfectly complements its graceful architecture. Standing on a site once occupied by “the great stone house” recorded in the era of Mary Queen of Scots, it is widely regarded as one of Scotland’s loveliest Regency country houses, designed by celebrated Aberdeen architect Archibald Simpson, whose portrait still hangs in the interior. The surrounding landscape has witnessed moments of real historical drama. In 1645, during the turbulent covenanting wars, part of Montrose’s Royalist army is believed to have assembled on the rising ground in front of the present house as they awaited the opposing forces led by the Duke of Argyll. At that time, a tower dating from the midsixteenth century stood here, and local tradition holds that soldiers camped on land now just beyond the lower edge of the walled garden. Created for Sir James Dunbar, Boath House remained in the Dunbar family for generations, right up until the early twentieth century. Thereafter, it passed through several owners and, by the early 1990s, had sadly slipped into serious disrepair. It was then that Don and Wendy acquired the property and embarked on an extensive, sensitive restoration, carefully reviving the house and reinstating much of its original elegance and charm. The estate’s historic character is echoed in its surviving features. A period dovecote linked to the old house still stands in the nearby village of Auldearn and is now preserved under the care of the National Trust for Scotland. The walled garden, informed by historical research into its original layout, has been thoughtfully replanted in the spirit of a traditional kitchen garden and once again supplies the house with fresh herbs and vegetables, honouring the self-sufficient traditions of earlier centuries. Description The main house is arranged over three floors and offers generous, versatile accommodation. On the ground floor there are 5 reception rooms, currently set up as a dining room, a bar area, a reception lounge and a two further more intimate reception areas. There is also a professional kitchen on this floor. Upstairs are five beautifully appointed bedroom suites and extensive ancillary space. In its most recent guise, the house has successfully operated as a luxury boutique guest house with an acclaimed restaurant, demonstrating clear potential for future use as an intimate hotel, exclusiveuse venue or refined private residence. The basement area has two further bedrooms and a number of further rooms which could be adapted to be used as a spa area or home cinema. For over two decades, significant investment and sensitive restoration have transformed Boath House from a nearderelict building into an exceptionally wellpresented property. Its scale, setting and layout mean it could be enjoyed either as an outstanding private country home or as a distinctive boutique hotel or hospitality venture, giving an incoming owner valuable flexibility over future use. Cottages & The Café Within the grounds, two stylish cottages, the four hundred year old Apple Cottage and Meikle Cottage, provide additional flexible accommodation, suitable for guests, staff or extended family. The house is framed by mature, landscaped gardens, and the historic walled garden has previously accommodated a café and shop, offering potential buyers the opportunity to reestablish a destination element if desired. The wider estate includes an orchard, productive kitchen garden, ornamental pond, bog garden, sauna and areas of established woodland, creating a classic country setting with a strong sense of privacy. Location Boath House enjoys an idyllic setting on the beautiful Moray Firth coastline, just a few minutes’ drive east of the popular seaside town of Nairn and within easy reach of Inverness Airport. Surrounded by picturesque Highland scenery, it offers an appealing blend of peaceful country living and excellent accessibility for both local and longdistance travel. Nairn is a vibrant coastal town, long favoured as a holiday destination thanks to its golden beaches, charming harbour and welcoming atmosphere. The town provides an excellent selection of amenities, including independent shops, an art gallery, two museums, cafes and restaurants, alongside a sports centre, swimming pool, cricket pitch, tennis club and riding facilities. The harbour and marina form a lively focal point, with a small fishing fleet, sailing club and moored leisure craft reinforcing the town’s strong maritime character. Education is well catered for, with local primary and secondary schools, and the renowned Gordonstoun School situated around half an hour’s drive away. The Highland capital of Inverness, approximately 18 miles from Boath House, offers a full range of city facilities, including major supermarkets, retail parks, cultural venues and comprehensive medical services. Inverness also benefits from a mainline railway station with regular services to Aberdeen, Perth and Edinburgh, as well as a sleeper service to London, while Inverness Airport provides frequent flights to London, Bristol, Manchester, Birmingham and a number of other UK and European destinations. In addition, Boath House is ideally placed for enjoying many of the Highlands’ most sought-after leisure pursuits. Nearby, there are acclaimed golf courses, scenic coastal and countryside walks, renowned whisky distilleries and a wealth of historic sites to explore.

History Orchil Castle, a magnificent Category B Listed, Scots Baronial residence near Braco, was commissioned in 1867 by Rev John McDougall of Dundee and designed by renowned architect Andrew Heiton Junior, the property is widely regarded as one of Heiton’s most ambitious and successful country house projects. The estate later came under the ownership of Rev Thomas Crawford in 1907. Though the castle’s grandeur was twice threatened by major fires—in 1917 and again in 1967, which destroyed the roof—the property survived and retained much of its character. The house has experienced many colourful chapters throughout its history. In the 1920s, Orchil Castle hosted dignitaries including the Duke of York, the future King George VI, and George, Duke of Kent. During WWII, Colonel Dawson, then the owner, kept watch for enemy aircraft from the tower. After the war, shifting fortunes saw the estate briefly function as a foster home, and later, a local farmer allowed his sheep and pigs to roam splendid panelled rooms before restoration began in earnest. Description Boasting a commanding main tower, crow-stepped gables, and signature turrets with spires, Orchil Castle is set in scenic parkland with panoramic views sweeping towards the Ochil Hills.  All four façades present distinct aspects of the remarkable Scots Baronial design. To the rear, a sheltered courtyard framed in a U-shape, adds intimacy and charm to the estate. Internally, the castle features a grand reception hall and spacious yet manageable rooms.
