A fascinating fusion unfurls inside an Edwardian Castle in the form of this apartment. Hidden down a private drive in deep Scottish countryside, at first glance, the apartment is grandly presented inside a 19th-century castle, but a closer inspection reveals contemporary features dovetailed into the original design, cleverly expanding the space and light to create a luxury, self-catering homestay that’s bespoke down to the last detail. Traditional vintage charm combines with boutique flair inside, with many secret spots to sit and absorb the tranquil grounds. Every effort has been made to preserve the original features of the castle, including the stripped-back blond hardwood floor and the Art Deco spiral staircase from a Glaswegian company at the height of its industrial heyday. History buffs will particularly delight at the original furniture, art works and artifacts dotted throughout the space. With its double-floor loft style, the apartment will appeal to those with a passion for architecture and history. Persian rugs cover the gorgeous reclaimed wood floor, original to the castle. An arcadia mural stands prominently in the living room and family space. A mid-century leather sofa and gold coffee table, alongside leather rocking chairs and an upcycled wood burner, will make sure you lounge in true Mad-Men style. A modern kitchen with muted jade colours and breakfast bar will encourage lengthy lingerings alongside poached eggs. With a nod to mid-century inspiration, ghost chairs around the dining area opens up the space to connect the kitchen and the living area. Four bedrooms make slumberous havens. Plush wall-to-wall carpets are throughout the top floor, alongside two very spacious full bathrooms. The collection of beds in the apartment is definitely something to write home about; an Italianate canopy bed, 18th-century antique mahogany single beds, a linen-upholstered and brass-studded rococo bed, and the grand colonial-style, reclaimed wood bed will ensure the sweetest sleeps. This historic, Edwardian castle estate is set in the heart of picturesque Portpatrick. There are 2000 acres of glen walks, forests, beaches, lochs, gardens and waterfalls to explore. The Royal Castle Apartment is completely self-contained with its own private courtyard and entrance. The walled garden, with its glass house, is a romantic and peaceful retreat on the estate. Two lochs nestle into the hills and rhododendron banks. Wander along the glen walk past a rushing waterfall and a babbling brook to the two beaches to spot dolphins and seals. Dunskey Golf Course and the picturesque Portpatrick Harbour are two minutes away. Fishing expeditions from the beaches or on the two lochs are available.
