Dalnaglar Castle
Dalnaglar Castle near Cray in Perthshire is a nineteenth-century Scottish Baronial shooting lodge in an upland glen of the southern Cairngorms above Glenshee, built in the Victorian period when Highland sporting estates became fashionable retreats for wealthy visitors attracted by deer stalking and grouse shooting. Its turreted baronial architecture typifies the Victorian Highland lodge tradition, simultaneously evoking Scottish historical associations and providing comfortable accommodation for sporting parties. The surrounding landscape of the Glenshee uplands is one of the most spectacular in Perthshire, with the Glenshee Ski Centre at the head of the glen providing winter sports. The A93 road over the Glenshee pass is one of the most dramatically scenic roads in Scotland and the highest main road pass in Britain, connecting Blairgowrie to Braemar in Royal Deeside.
