Dunlugas lies within the postal district AB 53 in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The area is notable for the presence of Forglen House, described as the centrepiece of the Forglen estate in the parish of Forglen, north‑west of Turriff. Nearby, Inchdrewer Castle is a 16th‑century tower house situated on a slight rise 3.5 miles (5.6 km) south‑west of Banff, overlooking Banff Bay. The castle has a long history, having been owned by the Currour family, then purchased by the Ogilvies of Dunlugas in 1557, and later passing to the Abercromby of Birkenbog family. It was uninhabited after 1836 and has since deteriorated. The locality’s rural character and proximity to these historic sites provide a distinctive setting for residents seeking a quiet, heritage‑rich environment.
