Killiechassie House

Killiechassie House, Georgian estate in Perth and Kinross, Scotland

Description

Killiechassie House is a Georgian estate in Perth and Kinross situated along the River Tay banks. The main residence contains two halls, a dining room, a drawing room, and seven bedrooms spread across approximately 12 acres of grounds.

History

The house underwent major reconstruction in 1865, replacing an earlier building that had stood on the site. Throughout the 19th century, it belonged to the Douglas family of Scotland.

Culture

The name Killiechassie comes from ancient Scottish and means 'the church of the steep face', reflecting a former place of worship that once stood on the hillside. This naming reveals how the landscape and its religious past shaped the identity of the property.

Practical

The estate sits roughly 120 kilometers northeast of Edinburgh and about 1.5 kilometers northeast of Aberfeldy, making it accessible from both directions. A Grade B listed dovecote stands on the grounds and can be viewed as part of a visit.

Did you know?

A small loch within the grounds is said to be home to a Celtic water spirit according to regional folklore passed down through generations. This belief has persisted in local storytelling and adds a layer of legend to the landscape.
