Torrisdale Castle, Category B listed castle in Torrisdale, Scotland

The stone mansion stands on two levels with a basement, featuring traditional Scottish architectural elements and prominent turrets overlooking Torrisdale Bay.

General Keith Macalister commissioned architect James Gillespie Graham to construct this residence in 1815, with additional extensions completed during the 1900s.

The estate maintains its heritage through the Macalister Hall family, who have preserved the property's architectural character since their acquisition in 1890.

Several accommodations within the castle grounds, including cottages, lodges, and an apartment inside the main building, welcome visitors for overnight stays.

The castle grounds integrate modern enterprises, housing both an organic tannery and a gin distillery within the historical estate.
