Fenton Tower

Call Website

Fenton Tower Fenton Tower is a five-star, exclusive-use private castle situated near Scotland's stunning East Lothian coastline.

Fenton Tower is a magnificent, fortified; 16th Century tower located 18 miles East of Edinburgh near the coastal town of North Berwick. The castle’s location was originally chosen in the 11th Century because it afforded panoramic views in all directions and has had many distinguished visitors, among them being King James VI of Scotland (son of Mary Queen of Scots and Lord Darnley) who took refuge there as he fled from the rebel army in Fife across the Firth of Forth. The Tower has now been meticulously restored, and opened in 2002 to provide 5-star accommodation for up to 12 guests. Set amongst rolling countryside and surrounded by many of the worlds’ most famous golf courses (Muirfield, Gullane & North Berwick) Fenton Tower is the perfect base for a magnificent golfing experience. The location of the Tower makes it ideal for all kinds of country, sporting and recreational activities. Arrangements for parties of up to eight guns for Grouse, Partridge and Pheasant shooting, as well as fly fishing on the rivers Tweed and Tyne can be arranged. With horse riding, archery, and 5-star local attractions (including The National Museum of Flight, home to Concorde, and the Scottish Seabird Centre) all within a stones-throw of the Castle, your visit to East Lothian will be one you will want to repeat.

A stay at Fenton is often shaped by more than the Tower itself.

Recently, we have had the pleasure of welcoming guests travelling with Lyons Links, with transport arranged by Luxe Scot throughout their stay.

We are always grateful to work alongside trusted agents and suppliers who help make each visit feel seamless from arrival to departure.

Winter adventures in East Lothian, followed by the warmth of Fenton Tower.

Think frosty drives, windswept coastline, fireside drinks and a very comfortable night in. From January to March, one-night stays will be available in place of our usual two-night minimum, so this could be the winter break you’ve been waiting for.

The wait is over…the season is underway at Fenton Brunt, with partridge days now in full swing and pheasant joining the programme from 1 October. Across the months ahead, days can be shaped around partridge, pheasant and duck, with high birds, varied drives and the East Lothian countryside providing a particularly fine backdrop.

It all begins with coffee, the peg draw and a little anticipation before heading into the field. Elevenses arrive between drives, followed by lunch, an afternoon’s sport and, inevitably, plenty to discuss once the guns are away.

There are few places that wear autumn quite like Scotland.

The light softens, the landscape begins to turn and every long walk seems to call for somewhere warm at the end of it. Fenton feels particularly at home this time of year.
