A VICTORIAN hotel located in a famous Highlands town where Macbeth, King of Scots, who died in battle has gone up for sale.
The Macbeth Arms, located in Lumphanan, has hit the market for offers over £270,000.
The town is famously the site where Macbeth fell at the battle of Lumphanan in 1057.
Macbeth’s Stone and Macbeth’s Well are near the village and attract many tourists who want to learn more about Scottish history.

The Hotel dates from the late 1800s and has four large rooms, a bar, and a dining room.
The pub is popular with both locals and guests as it has a pool table and a jukebox.
The towns of Aboyne, Ballater, Banchory, and Braemar are also located nearby and boast some stunning countryside.
Agents selling the property have said: “The Macbeth Arms Hotel is a traditional hotel, dating from the late-1800s, benefitting from a strong trading location with a prominent corner site.
“Sitting within the popular rural Aberdeenshire village of Lumphanan in the heart of Royal Deeside, it is popular with those visitors undertaking an odyssey of the North-East of Scotland including the many places of historical significance.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
