The ingredients are all there. A handsome country estate with a lengthy history of grandeur, expansive private grounds and a deep bathtub designed to be – ahem - enjoyed. So far, so Saltburn. But instead of that film’s dysfunctional aristocratic family and a murderous new misfit friend, The Aberturret Estate House invites you to gather up 11 of your own family or friends, dysfunctional or otherwise, to sample the very best of Scottish hospitality.
Saltburn unsettled viewers for many reasons – the bath scene, the garden scene, the OTHER garden scene – but for those with a more design-centred mindset, it was the opulent setting that most impressed. Who doesn’t dream of lording or ladying it in their own mansion, collecting friends together for a weekend of rural pursuits, eating and drinking, perhaps even throwing your own Murder on the Dancefloor disco.
