Fasque Castle Fasque Castle Christmas 2026

This Christmas leave the ordinary behind and retreat to the timeless grandeur of Fasque Castle.

Set within the beautiful winter landscapes of Aberdeenshire, this magnificent 19th-century baronial estate offers an extraordinary setting for an unforgettable festive escape.

Built in 1809 and once the childhood home of four-time British Prime Minister William Gladstone, Fasque combines rich Scottish heritage with contemporary luxury, creating a wonderfully atmospheric setting for Christmas with the people who matter most.

Fasque Castle is made for shared celebrations. There is space for everyone to gather, yet enough room to find a quiet corner when you want it. Sleeping up to 40 of your favourite people, across 19 exceptionally decorated bedrooms, gather family and friends, settle beside roaring fires, dine on exceptional seasonal cuisine and wake to the magic of Christmas morning in your very own private castle.

A Christmas steeped in tradition, wrapped in luxury and made entirely your own!

Imagine arriving at Fasque as winter settles across the Aberdeenshire countryside.

The castle is glowing with festive warmth, fires crackle in grand fireplaces. Christmas decorations fill the beautifully appointed interiors. Candlelight catches the sparkle of the season.

Outside, the estate stretches into the peaceful winter landscape.
Inside, there is nowhere else you need to be.

Fasque Castle offers the rare opportunity to bring your favourite people together and enjoy Christmas entirely at your own pace, whether that means long lunches around the dining table, fireside conversations that continue late into the evening, festive celebrations or quiet moments together in the countryside.

Christmas at Fasque Castle is about creating memories that last long after the decorations have come down.
