Attraction Information
If you like delving deep into history, soaking up the finest culture, exploring beautiful countryside or adrenaline-fuelled mountain biking you'll love a day at Drumlanrig Castle.
From activities for kids to salmon fishing, you will find a raft of activity awaiting you. The Castle has 120 rooms, 17 turrets and four towers and from your very first glance you will know you are entering a world of grandeur and grace. You'll discover art by Rembrandt and Gainsborough amid the finest furnishing and antiques.
The Estate has miles of beautiful walks and acres of elegant gardens. Launch yourself down one of the championship mountain biking trails, or hook yourself a salmon, fishing on the river. Activities for kids include everything from an adventure playground to wildlife walks and a whole host of seasonal events.
The Castle is the stunning Dumfrieshire seat of the Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch and Queensberry and they hope you find it as inspiring as they do.
