Formerly the home of the first Duke of Fife, the original castle was given to Ludovic of Lennox by King James VI in 1596. The derelict building was restored in 2005 and is now the centrepiece of the Eden Club which is claimed to be the most luxurious private club in Scotland, complete with its own swimming pool, gym, spa, tennis courts and other on-site facilities. Members also have access to their own luxurious private residences. Membership of the Eden Clib is strictly by invitation and is drawn from individuals that belong to other fine private clubs around the world. All applicants are screened and an interview with the Chairman is mandatory. The Club reserves the right to refuse membership to any unsuitable applicant and no reason will be given. And if you have to ask what membership costs, you probably can't afford it anyway.
