Fonab Castle, also known as Port-na-Craig House, is located in Pitlochry, Perth and Kinross, Scotland.

History

Built in 1892 for Lieutenant Colonel George Glas Sandeman, and now a Category B listed building. In 1946, the building became the property of the North of Scotland Hydro-Electric Board, who changed the property's name from Fonab Castle to Port-na-Craig House. The castle was altered internally in 1954.

Fonab Castle

The building lay empty for many years, and was listed on the Buildings at Risk Register for Scotland.

Fonab Castle

As a hotel

The castle is now a luxury five-star hotel, set in (which is much less than its original acreage due to the flooding of Loch Faskally to create a reservoir). The hotel has a fine-dining restaurant of three AA Rosettes, and 43 guest bedrooms.

Fonab Castle

In 2022, the property was sold, via a Savills auction, to Fonab SPV.
