Culcreuch Castle Hotel & Estate, Fintry

Historia

The oldest parts of the Castle date back to before 1296. The Galbraiths of Culcreuch were a warlike Clan and it is certain that the Castle witnessed much warmongering over time with its bottle dungeon in regular use. Penniless, Robert Galbraith, 11th Laird of Culcreuch and 17th Chief of Clan Galbraith, fled to Ireland and disappeared into Irish history. After 17 generations of occupation by the Clan Galbraith, the Napiers took over in 1632 and built a new wing to the Castle. Robert Napier was the second son of the famous John Napier of Merchiston, who invented Logarithms. Five generations lived at Culcreuch before selling the Estate to Peter Spiers from Glasgow in 1769 for a reputed £15,200.
