About the Location

Hunterston House continues to be a most popular film location destination for Scotland. Creative use is made of our wide variety of rooms on all four floors of the House, Castle and outhouses.

Externally our 2 acre walled garden, mature tree lined avenues and adjacent ancient woodlands have provided a diverse range of backgrounds for filming.

"The ideal location for period dramas and spooky horrors — affectionately nicknamed Tumbleweed Towers by our family."
