Fetteresso Castle, Category B listed castle in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

Fetteresso Castle stands west of Stonehaven, featuring Scottish Gothic architecture with Palladian design elements and distinctive crow-stepped gables.

Originally constructed in the 14th century as a tower house, the castle underwent reconstruction in 1761, transforming from a defensive structure into a manor.

The castle grounds contain prehistoric remains, including a Bronze Age burial cairn and artifacts from the Beaker people discovered in 1998.

The castle structure has been divided into seven separate residential units, offering accommodation while maintaining its historical exterior characteristics.

A Roman camp called Raedykes lies northwest of the castle, while a 17th-century dovecote remains standing in the southern section of the grounds.
