fields beyond the castle is in an idyllic setting. Work has begun on the
castle's grounds, landscape gardeners are presently planning the project,
with work due to be completed in early spring 2010.
Braal Castle has an interesting history; the original keep (ruins
photographed below) was built in the 13th-14th century. King Robert II
granted the castle to his son, and was the principle seat of the Earls of
Caithness.
In the 19th century the Sinclair family built the adjacent mansion now
known as Braal Castle. It was later used as a hotel and was requisitioned
by the army during WWII, apparently Winston Churchill stayed in the castle
at some point during this time.
In the 70's the castle was converted into 15 flats, which were very
popular for many years, however the castle was allowed to fall into a
state of disrepair. One of our landlords purchased the castle and
surrounding grounds in late 2008 and started major renovations.
Nearby Wick and Thurso have a wide variety of shops and retail parks,
airport, train stations & other services.
