Welcome to Murthly Estate

Situated near Dunkeld in Highland Perthshire, Murthly Estate is one hour from the Central Belt, and truly rural and Highland in nature. The landscaped grounds around Murthly Castle, together with endless woods, rivers and hills, make the Estate a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings.

Murthly Castle and the Chapel of St. Anthony the Eremite are at the core of the Estate, and a highly sought-after venue for filming, weddings, corporate entertainment and conferences, and private hire. Hardly surprising when you consider the attractions of the castle's reception rooms, walled garden, tree-lined avenues and extensive grounds.

Salmon and trout fishing are available on the River Tay, River Braan and Balhomish Dam. Game shooting and stalking are available across the wider Estate, which extends to 9,500 acres.

Murthly Sawmill, owned and operated by the Estate, has a long-standing reputation for quality fencing and garden products.

Murthly Fishings

To book your salmon fishing on the River Tay, Ring Julie at our office on 01738 630 666 or e-mail julie.farquharson@bidwells.co.uk. Enjoy an exciting day on the river, and catch a salmon! You can see how we're doing on our Murthly Fishings Facebook and Instagram pages.

Murthly Sawmill

Our PV panel installation saved over 120 tonnes of CO2 emmissions in 2023 and 2024, with our brand new production-line machinery providing further efficiency and safety. All off-cuts from the mill go through a chipper and are then fed into the biomass boiler at the castle. This makes the sawmill a waste-free, environmentally-clean business right through. See our dedicated website at www.murthlysawmill.co.uk.

Weddings, Filming and other Events at Murthly Castle

We're fully booked for July and August 2025, and June 2026, but are still taking bookings for all other months. We offer a bespoke service and the Estate provides a magical setting that's completely private. In 2024 we hosted weddings, a major film production, corporate events and dinners, a concert, and private hire events.

Wildlife

In April we are starting to see quite a few bluebells alongside the daffodils, and the spring chorus is getting loud! We expect the ospreys to return to their nests within the next couple of weeks. We're also seeing plenty of roe deer, fallow deer and red squirrels.
