Leslie Castle is located outside the village of Leslie, 45 kilometres (28 mi) northwest of Aberdeen, in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The building that stands there now dates back to the 14th century. In the late 1970s, plans started for the castle to be restored and by the end of the 1980s this was completed. In 1995, a Leslie Clan Gathering was held at Leslie Castle. The castle was formerly a B&B, but has since changed hands and is now a private home.
