Arndilly

Arndilly is a place name in Scotland, referring to a location in the Speyside region, known for its whisky production. It is associated with the Arndilly Estate, a country estate containing a notable historical house. The name is likely of Gaelic origin, although the exact meaning is debated among toponymists. The area is characterized by rolling hills and fertile land suitable for agriculture and distilling. Arndilly is situated near the River Spey, a river intrinsically linked to the Scotch whisky industry due to its pure water source. The Arndilly Beat, a renowned section of the River Spey, is also popular for salmon fishing. The estate has a long history and has been owned by several prominent Scottish families over the centuries. The main house, Arndilly House, is a significant architectural feature of the area.
