Built in the mid-19th century in the Scottish Baronial style by John Dalrymple, 10th Earl of Stair, and his wife Louisa de Franquetot.

Replacement for Castle Kennedy which burned down in the early 18th century.

Much of Lochinch Castle has been left untouched with original decorations and furnishings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Alongside the castle there are many outbuildings and some lovely grounds to explore.
