"Dyson Perrins spent several months annually at Ardross, with house parties making the most of the grouse moors, fishing and deer forests. Dyson Perrins continued the modernisation efforts, as well as installing electricity and purchasing further land in Glencalvie and Diebidale. A major addition was the Formal Garden, designed by Edward White for the east front. A perspective of Edward's design, drawn by C E Mallows in 1909, was exhibited at the Royal Academy."
"The Traitors US host Alan Cummings revealed that not even the cast stays in the castle (they all stayed in a far less glamorous Inverness airport hotel), and the castle is not a hotel, and rooms aren't available individually. Saying that, if you hire the venue for a wedding or for a group, then up to 41 guests can make the most of the unique overnight accommodation."
Sir Kenneth Matheson sold the estate to C W Dyson Perrins in 1898. Dyson Perrins spent months at Ardross, hosting parties that used grouse moors, fishing and deer forests. He modernised the estate, installed electricity, and purchased land in Glencalvie and Diebidale. Edward White designed a Formal Garden for the east front; a perspective by C E Mallows was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1909. The estate was broken up and sold in 1937, and the Mardon family owned the castle until 1983. The McTaggart family acquired and restored the gardens. Ardross Castle served as the filming location for The Traitors, but it is not a hotel and rooms are not available individually; the venue can be hired for weddings or groups for up to 41 guests. Nearby accommodation options include Tulloch Castle Hotel and Inverlochy Castle.
