About Kellie Castle & Garden
The National Trust for Scotland's Kellie Castle in Fife dates from as early as the 14th century and has magnificent plaster ceilings, painted panelling and fine furniture designed by Sir Robert Lorimer.
Kellie Castle & Garden Description
The grounds and garden could easily be a day out in themselves, with acres of woodland walks, a bird hide and an abundance of nature. The Arts & Crafts garden is packed with beautiful borders of old-fashioned roses and herbaceous plants, as well as fruit and vegetables โ all grown organically.
Seasonal events throughout the year give you even more reasons to join us for a memorable trip into Scotlandโs past.
