Description

Skibo Castle ist ein Schloss im Stil des Scottish Baronials rund sechs Kilometer westlich von Dornoch in den schottischen Highlands. Ende des 19./Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts ließ der Tycoon Andrew Carnegie das Gebäude erbauen, indem er ein etwa 25 Jahre zuvor errichtetes Herrenhaus umgestalten und ausbauen ließ. Carnegies Familie besaß das Schloss samt großem Anwesen bis in die 1980er Jahre, ehe es Derek Holt 1982 erwarb. Nach Restaurierungen und Modernisierungen für mehrere Millionen Pfund verkaufte Holt 1990 an Peter de Savary, der es zum Sitz des exklusiven Carnegie Clubs machte und 2003 wiederum an eine Gesellschaft von Mitgliedern dieses Clubs veräußerte.
