Cold running water. NO running hot water - but there is a kettle for hot water.

Falling for its isolated charm and hearing it was to be abandoned, she decided to save it. Having acquired the most northerly inhabited castle on the British mainland, The Queen Mother renovated and restored it and created the beautiful gardens you see today. For almost half a century she spent many happy summers here and shorter visits at other times of the year. The Castle and Gardens of Mey have held Visit Scotland's highest award of a 5 Star quality assurance grading every year since their first unannounced visit in 2007. Their annual assessments include all aspects of the castle, gardens, animal centre, gift shop and tearoom.

The early Thanes of Calder The early Thanes of Calder - an old spelling of the place name - were appointed Sheriffs and Hereditary Constables of the royal castle of Nairn. This fortification, founded by William the Lion in 1179 was sited to command the ford over the river Nairn near the sea, carefully controlling the coastal route between Inverness and Elgin. That castle has since vanished without trace. The family had another residence at Old Calder which, according to the Exchequer accounts, was last repaired in 1398. Again, not much remains of that building apart from faint crop-marks. It was at this time that the building of the present Cawdor Castle began A new, more efficient site was chosen. The imposing, rectangular tower-house consisted of four storeys and a garret with one entrance to the outside world set at upper first floor level; the perfect design to keep out unwelcome visitors. The ancient castle, which is home to the Cawdor family to this day, has evolved over 600 years and has been lovingly filled with beautiful furniture, fine portraits, intriguing objects and amazing tapestries.

The Annexe comprises of one bedroom, one bathroom with shower over bath (quite powerful), and a kitchen/diner with wood stove, oven, dining table, sofa, fridge, microwave and TV. Free wi-fi is available throughout the annexe, however, it should be noted that mobile coverage and TV reception is poor; an Amazon Firestick is provided for your use (free digital channel viewing) and a small selection of DVDs. You also have your own deck area with table, chairs and a small chimnea - BBQ on request!

Welcome to Amberskye Annexe. So-called because, at sunrise and sunset, you can expect to see shades of amber, pink and purple on the horizon. At certain times of the year (mainly Nov-April), this spectacle is occasionally upstaged by the infinitely more mesmerising Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) illuminating the night sky during Winter (we've witnessed them many times). Even on Summer nights, the valley is quiet and the stars are plentiful and piercing. Definitely worth sitting outside on the annexe patio and keeping cosy in front of your own little chimnea! Amberskye is surrounded by croftland, so sheep are often found in the fields behind (along with machinery). However, spring time is a wonderful season to view newborn lambs nearby. From the north side of Amberskye, the valley of Lairg spans out before you, encompassing the view of the Loch and stunning mountain views towards the West and North West Coasts - there are plenty of opportunities for fishing, water activities, mountain/road biking, walking/hiking, mountain climbing, bird watching, dining, entertainment and playing golf on some of Scotland's finest greens. If you intend to stay in winter, it is necessary that you are comfortable using a woodstove - the house was built in the 1850s and can get cold easily, despite the heating! Please also note that we live on a hillside and end of Jan-March is usually the coldest time, bringing snow and ice. Although we will do everything we can to keep the driveway clear, a 4x4 capable vehicle would be recommended during these months.
