Kinnairdy Castle, Medieval tower house in Marnoch, Scotland.

Kinnairdy Castle stands as a five-storey stone structure with a garret, featuring traditional Scottish architectural elements and an L-shaped floor plan.

The Innes family constructed the initial castle during the 15th century, replacing an earlier wooden motte and bailey fortification on the same location.

The Gregory family, who owned the castle in the 17th century, produced twelve professors including David Gregory, who developed scientific instruments.

The castle operates as a self-catering accommodation facility with space for eight guests, situated between the towns of Turriff and Keith.

An oak-panelled aumbry inside displays carved heads of Sir Alexander Innes and Christian Dunbar, dating from 1493.
