Fasque House
Fasque, also known as Fasque House, or Fasque Castle is a mansion in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, situated near the village of Fettercairn, in the former county of Kincardineshire.
The property is an award-winning exclusive use property managed by (Inverlochy Castle Management International ), the same company that manages some of Scotland's best luxury hotels such as (Cromlix ) in Perthshire, (Greywalls Hotel & Chez Roux ) in East Lothian and (Inverlochy Castle ) in Fort William.
Fasque was the property of the Ramsays of Balmain, and the present house was completed around 1809, replacing an earlier house. It was purchased in 1829 by Sir John Gladstone, 1st Baronet, father of William Ewart Gladstone, Prime Minister to Queen Victoria, who spent much of his childhood here. Fasque was a family home of the Gladstones until the 1930s, and was open to the public during the last quarter of the 20th century. In 2010 Fasque House was bought by Fasque House Properties Ltd and restoration work was begun.
==Etymology==
The name comes from the Gaelic word ''faskie'', meaning "safety", or "dwelling place", and for reasons of potential tautology, "house" was never officially added. The name is a baroque, eighteenth century corruption of the original Gaelic word.
