Ardvourlie Castle is a 19th-century country house on Harris, one of the Western Isles off the north-west coast of Scotland. The house was built beside Loch Seaforth in 1863 as a hunting lodge on the North Harris Estate, for Charles Murray, 7th Earl of Dunmore, the then owner of the island.[1] It is a category B listed building.[2]

It was put up for sale in 2009.[3]
