Fernie Castle is an enlarged sixteenth-century tower house in north-east Fife, Scotland.

Originally built in an L-plan layout, it was later extended to include a three floor block which included a round tower at one of the corners. ^[1] Situated just east of the village of Letham, ^[2] the castle is now primarily used as a hotel which also caters to weddings. ^[3]

When the Chinese real state company MDJM Ltd completed its acquisition on 26 June 2023, it was announced that the 14th-century tower house had undergone a renovation process and got the chance to offer weddings with 180 guests. ^{[4] [5]}
