Castles & Country Houses, Gardens & Parks
House of Dun (by architect William Adam) was the home of the Erskine (later Kennedy-Erskine) family from 1375 until 1980, when it came into the hands of the National Trust for Scotland.

The house and furnishings were restored and the House opened to the public in 1989, presided by the Queen Mother. Today the visitor can see how the house was at the time of Lady Augusta Fitzclarence, natural daughter to King William lV and his long term mistress, Dora Jordan, married to the Honourable John Kennedy Erskine. 

House of Dun is surrounded by beautiful formal gardens and woodland.
