The Traitors is finally back with a new celebrity spin – and with the first Celebrity Traitors UK, we are buzzing for another season of deceit, drama and inevitable betrayals. With a cast of 19 familiar faces for The Celebrity Traitors UK and Claudia Winkleman returning as the show’s host, the next few weeks promise to be intense as contestants battle it out to be in with a chance of winning the prize money of up to £100,000 – for charity, of course.
If you’ve watched the show before, you’ll know that the psychological games and missions unfold in a suitably dramatic castle set in the Scottish Highlands.
Speaking on the setting for the show, The Traitors UK host Claudia Winkleman said while filming the first series, “I have never been anywhere more beautiful than the Scottish highlands in my life. It felt sometimes like we were in a painting if that’s not too cheesy. On day two, we saw a double rainbow and everyone was like oh my gosh, and the crew were crying, there were baby deer, there was beautiful heather, there were ancient trees, and an ancient loch… But it’s just the most beautiful landscape.”
But exactly where is The Traitors filmed in Scotland? We explain everything we know about The Traitors’ castle and, vitally, whether or not you can stay there for yourself.

Where is The Celebrity Traitors UK filmed?
Much of The Traitors is filmed in and around a castle in Scotland, with contestants participating in roundtable eliminations, challenges, and breakfast reveals on the estate.
Filming takes place north of Inverness across several locations though predominantly in Ardross Castle. The stunning estate features over 100 acres of sprawling parkland, much of which was shown through series one and two.
