Where Is 'The Traitors; Filmed?

"Following Alexander's death, his son, Sir Kenneth Matheson, sold the estate to businessman C. W. Dyson Perrins in 1898. Dyson Perrins spent several months annually at Ardross, with house parties making the most of the grouse moors, fishing and deer forests."

"Dyson Perrins continued the modernization efforts, as well as installing electricity and purchasing further land in Glencalvie and Diebidale. A major addition was the Formal Garden, designed by Edward White for the east front. A perspective of Edward's design drawn by C. E. Mallows in 1909 was exhibited at the Royal Academy."

"The estate was then broken up and sold in 1937, with the Mardon family purchasing the castle, Lealty Farm and over 80 acres, living there until 1983 when the estate was sold. In 1983, the McTaggart family acquired the estate and began to restore the gardens including the formal garden, walled garden, shrubberies, and lawns."
