Culcreuch Castle Sold !

Wednesday, May 16th, 2007

An American family with a love of Scottish culture has bought the Galbraith ancestral home, Culcreuch Castle in Stirlingshire, Scotland. The new owners also purchased 300 acres of the surrounding estate.



David Littlefair and Andrew Haslam, directors of Hideaway Country Holidays, who have owned the hotel for more than 20 years will continue to act as directors for the property. The family, who doesn’t want to be named, paid an “undisclosed sum” for the property. Short and long term renovation projects are in planning and, apparently, the property will continue to function as a hotel, as in the past.
