Burleigh Castle

Although the heart of Burleigh Castle is the three-storey tower house, its chief delight is its remarkable corner tower. Round at the base, its rectangular top floor is corbelled out – an eye-catching piece of Jacobean architecture.

The existing stone castle was likely begun in the late 1400s or early 1500s, though there may have been a residence here from the mid-1400s. It was adapted and expanded in the late 1500s. The Balfours lost the land and castle in 1716.

Exterior areas and grounds remain open throughout the year during daylight hours.

Dogs are permitted on lead and must be attended to at all times.
