The Carnegie Club at Skibo Castle is unique in so many ways: its location, its superb service, amazing facilities and a team whose sole aim is to ensure you have a memorable stay. In many ways, little has changed since Andrew Carnegie decided that Skibo was ‘heaven on earth’ in 1898, and used it as his Scottish family home in his later years. This magazine not only shares some of Skibo’s secrets, its history and people, but also introduces you to a range of interesting subjects that have some form of connection with the estate. Wherever you are reading this – be it already at The Carnegie Club, relaxing at home, travelling, or on a quiet, sun-drenched island – I hope the issue inspires you and we hope to welcome you soon.
