HUNTINGTOWER CASTLE
This 15th century castle was built for the Ruthven clan and called the House of Ruthven for most of its existence. It was here that Mary Queen of Scots and Lord Darnley stayed during the Chaseabout Raid. The visit is an opportunity to discover this dramatic historical episode on site. The castle consists of two towers and a great hall, which brought them together in the 17th century. There are some beautiful painted ceilings and plasterwork, dating from around 1540. A treasure hiding place is also to be discovered: a cupboard in a closet, hidden by a stone.
