Lickleyhead Castle is a well-restored turreted 16th-century L-plan castle dating from around 1600, and is full of nooks and crannies. The castle is a little south of Auchleven, by the banks of the Gadie Burn, in Aberdeenshire, Scotland and sits on 10 acres of woods. With its amazing fireplaces, circular stairway and fertile land, it’s regarded as one of Scotland’s most beautiful historic homes.

Rose’s father Sebastian is the Aberdeenshire Chieftain of Clan Leslie. The castle has been in the family for more than 500 years.
