Live like royalty on historic Angus estate

- Nadia vidinova and Jake keith

Visitors to Angus can live like a real Lord or Lady by staying at a house with real-life royal connection­s.

Glamis House, located within the Glamis Castle estate, has been renovated and is being offered as rental accommodat­ion for corporate functions and weddings.

The venue boasts one master apartment, four en suite bedrooms and one double bedroom, sleeping up to 12 adult guests. There is also a heated therapy swimming pool in the games room and access to a range of sporting pursuits on the estate.

Tommy Baxter, general manager of the Glamis Castle estate, said it was a “perfect opportunit­y” to provide something the business has lacked for years.

He said: “Quite often we have highprofil­e visitors or guests of weddings or other functions but we’ve never had the right accommodat­ion to put them up.

“We have always lacked somewhere that can fill this gap and Glamis House just gave us this perfect opportunit­y.

“It is a beautiful late-georgian property that we have renovated to a really high standard. We didn’t want to let it out to a long-term tenant because we felt it was just too special for that.”

The house was built between 1800 and 1802 to accommodat­e Patrick Proctor, the Factor to the 10th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne on the Glamis estate.
