    Gordon Castle is a country house located near Fochabers in the parish of Bellie in Moray, Scotland. It was the principal seat of the Dukes of Gordon and was originally called Bog-of-Gight. The six-storey medieval tower dates from 1498 and in the late 18th century it was incorporated into the centre of a huge Neoclassical house. The castle was used as a military hospital during the First World War, and in 1954 all but the central tower and the east wing pavilion were demolished due to dry rot.
    The castle is now very much a business with something for everyone. It has one of the oldest and largest walled kitchen gardens in Britain, cafe, children's play and shop. There is have luxury castle accommodation, cottages, fishing and country pursuits. It is a popular wedding venue.
