Wedderburn Castle is surrounded by 18th-century parkland. The structure of a formal terraced layout from the same period survives around the house.

Brief history of site

Wedderburn Castle has been associated with the Home family for almost 600 years. The designed landscape at Wedderburn was laid out in the late-18th century, following the alterations to the house by James and Robert Adam between 1770 and 1778. The house is currently available for exclusive rental accommodation and self-catering.
