Myres Castle, Category B listed castle in Auchtermuchty, Scotland
The stone fortress displays a Z-plan layout with two round towers at opposite corners, an ochre harled exterior, and exposed grey ashlar stonework.
Built in 1530 by John Scrymgeour, Master of Works to James V, the castle served as the hereditary home of the Macers of Falkland Palace.
The castle grounds feature a Vatican-style walled garden filled with roses, kitchen plants, a woodland trail, and a Spanish chestnut tree.
Located 40 minutes from Edinburgh, the castle operates as a wedding venue from April to October, accommodating up to 160 guests.
The basement contains a medieval kitchen with Romanesque barrel-vaulted construction, indicating the presence of an earlier 14th-century structure.
