Torrisdale Castle is a historic mansion residence, overlooking Torrisdale Bay, Argyll, south of Carradale, Kintyre, Scotland. The castle is situated at the edge of the village of Torrisdale. It is a category B listed building.[1]

History

The mansion was built in 1815, by General Keith Macalister, of Loup and Torrisdale in 1815.[2] Designed by architect James Gillespie Graham, the mansion is castellated and consists of two storeys and a basement. Further extensions occurred in the 1900s.[1]

The estate is home to the Macalister Hall family who have owned Torrisdale since 1890.[3] A number of lodges, cottages, houses and even an apartment within the castle are available as self-catering accommodation. An organic Tannery & gin distillery also run on the estate.[4]
