Location Fetteresso Castle is located some 2 miles from the centre of Stonehaven and approximately one mile west of the A90 dual carriageway.

There is a picturesque harbour with hotels and restaurants, a range of shopping facilities, post office and banks. Stonehaven has excellent primary and secondary schools, a leisure centre with gymnasium and swimming pool and an open air heated swimming pool. There is an 18 hole golf course with clubhouse, bowling green, tennis courts and open public parks. Lathallan School runs a bus from the Market Square. Robert Gordon's College is easily accessible by train. Directions From Aberdeen travel south on the A90 and leave the dual carriageway at the Stonehaven/Spurryhillock exit. Follow the signs as if returning to Aberdeen, crossing back over the dual carriageway. Pass the Garden Centre, Veterinary Clinic and Red Lodge House on the left. Immediately after the Lodge House, take the private driveway on the left, through an open set of gates. Follow this road as far as the Castle, and on entering through the second set of gates proceed straight ahead and the entrance to No 2 is located on the left hand side. Garden The castle grounds are set within seven acres of policies which are divided into exclusive and common ownership. The grounds are laid in formal lawns to the front with a wide variety of mature trees and shrubs. There is a separate area of mature woodland, magnificent rhododendron bushes and a children's play park at the far end. The mutual areas are well maintained on an informal basis. No 2 has almost one acre of allocated garden with a south facing prospect. The garden has been lovingly tended and is well stocked with old roses and mature perennials. The stunning terrace leading down to a haha contains an extensive daffodil bank, small orchard, ornamental trees, raspberry and currant bushes and small herb garden. In addition, the central courtyard garden to the rear is jointly owned by Nos 2 and 4. With pull out clothes drying line, this area offers a peaceful situation to enjoy late afternoon sunshine. Garage and Parking There is a gravel driveway to the front with parking for several vehicles. A lavender hedged turning circle ensures ease of access. The property also has a large double garage located to the rear within the communal garage area. The garage has two sets of wooden doors, power, an inspection pit and pitched roof with storage within the rafters. The oil tanks are located in a discreet position to the rear. NB. ''Parties viewing this property should not park anywhere other than directly in front of No 2. There is ample room for this. Alternatively there is ample room in the communal parking area on the drive where the mound of gravel is, or at the garages at the rear of the Castle which are the first two on the left with the yellow roses around them. If the latter is used then viewers will have to retrace their footsteps back around the drive round to the front where no.2 is situated. The communal areas of the Castle are at the rear of the building. All other areas are privately owned and as such should be treated with the same respect for privacy that fenced in areas command.'' The property has full oil fired central heating and double glazing. REGISTRATION PENDING
