Ackergill Tower is a 15th-century fortress transformed into an exclusive luxury hotel on Scotland's remote northern coast near Wick, overlooking eight thousand acres of estate and a private beach. First recorded in 1538 and built by the Clan Keith, the five-storey tower underwent extensive renovation in the 1980s and now offers period rooms with traditional furnishings, modern comforts, and access to amenities including a croquet lawn, sunken gardens, and the Smuggler's Saloon pub. The castle's dramatic clifftop setting and legendary ghost of Helen Gunn add to its romantic Highland appeal.
