Fyvie Castle is a very interesting place to visit. It was one of the highlights of the various castles we visited during our holiday. Highly recommend the tour of the castle. Our tour guide, Bob, did a great job telling us the history of the castle and pointing out interesting items seen on the tour. People usually see a picture where the eyes of the person in the painting follow you. In one of the paintings in the castle’s collection a shoe on the person in the painting follows you. Very weird! Definitely recommend this castle for a tour.

Myself and the wife visited the castle today for the first time. We really enjoyed our tour from Bob and he was very entertaining and lots of knowledge about the castle. All staff were very friendly and we finished of with a lovely walk through the gardens of the castle. Well worth a visit 🙂⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We are very glad that Storm Babet receeded in time to allow us to visit Fyvie Castle. A beautiful building that exudes history and fascinating stories. I mainly want to thank Sheila, our tour guide, for her patience, charm and sense of humour - she really brought the house alive for us. This place is definitely worth a visit. Also, go to the tea rooms - delicious.

One of the best castle tours yet! So many interesting stories, impressive artwork and stunning rooms. Our tour guide Leslie was fabulous. The tearooms serve the best cheese scones - but get there early or they’ll run out. Dogs may be allowed inside if it’s quiet but if it’s busy you may have to sit outside- this seems a sensible policy and we were lucky as it was quiet and there were no other dogs around. There is a relatively short (20-30 minute) walk around a little loch and a walled garden. Parking is free with National Trust or about £3 without. A special place and well worth a visit.

Our second visit, but first to take tour inside castle. Bob our guide was super. Very informative about the contents of the castle, the families that had owned it over time and the history surrounding the owners and the castle. He was patient with our kids and took time to engage them when some of the information was a little over their heads, and hunting for the Green Lady in each room was a real hit.! The castle itself has some beautiful and interesting artefacts. All in all a fantastic day out on an otherwise wet and windy day. We didn’t visit the tearoom this time but did on our last visit and it was lovely, reasonably priced for a castle and staff friendly. We will definitely be back. Thank you,

We arrived as a group of 10 and went round the castle with a tour guide and other visitors. The tour was a little over an hour and our guide was friendly, informative and it was well worth going on. I really recommend the tour. There's a gift shop and tea room (tasty soup, bacon roll, cakes). Plenty walking outside but we didn't partake as it was pouring rain but the plants and shrubs on the walk to the castle were lovely to look at. Definitely recommend. £16 entry, free if National Trust member, £4 for parking (coins) but you can pay at reception if no cash.

Fyvie Castle is one of the best castles I have ever visited. It is full of furniture, art, and other items that are pertinent to the time. This castle is unique as it was built over time. The first tower was built sometime in the 13th century. Every family that occupied the castle after that added on various towers. The walls are covered with portraits, landscapes, and other art. Some of the pieces are done by Masters and are priceless. I really appreciated that the Scottish National Trust placed chairs that you can actually sit on in most of the rooms. When you walk in, you see a couple of knight’s armor. One was extremely unique (see the photos.). We had a young man, Ronan, who was our guide through the castle. He told us up front that he was going to tell us about the things that he loved and found interesting, but if we had other questions he would certainly answer them. For being so young, he was very knowledgeable. I loved the interesting historical stories that he told including one involving a curse which has come to fruition as well as several ghost stories of spirits who still inhabit the castle. There is a very nice little bookstore and tea room. The grounds are immaculate with some interesting sculptures. If you like castles, this is one not to be missed! We got an extra treat when Ronan played both the organ and grand piano in the music room. The music room was constructed to be acoustically magnificent. Sometimes weddings are held in that venue. There is also rooms to let in the oldest tower. We did not visit that tower, but I believe he said the accommodation would fit 16 people. Loved this visit.

Bob as our guide gave us an excellent tour of Fyvie Castle. The history and artwork of the castles various occupants were brought back to life, thanks to Bob’s delivery. Bob engaged very well with the children. The story of the ‘Green Lady’ the castle ghost, raised the hairs at the back our necks. We would recommend the castle tour as a great family experience!

Caught a tour of the house. Interesting history and stories to be heard in the tour. Lots of artwork and nice pieces to be seen. Tour guide was great and engaged well with kids. Would recommend

Pleasant visit and tour of the castle which proved interesting, although not dog friendly, so one had to wait outside. Pleasant cafe with welcoming staff and good drinks and snacks. Worth a visit.
