Discover the timeless allure of the Victress Tote, a handcrafted masterpiece from Jay & Lewis, showcased at the luxurious Thainstone House Hotel in Inverurie,
Aberdeenshire. Meticulously crafted from premium full-grain NDM leather, this sleek black tote with its elegant gold clasp combines durability and sophistication, making it the perfect accessory for any occasion.

Nestled within 44 acres of picturesque parkland, Thainstone House is an 18th-century Palladian mansion that exudes charm and tranquility. The hotel offers luxurious rooms, a rejuvenating spa, and the acclaimed Green Lady restaurant, where guests can savor exquisite local cuisine. But this stately retreat holds more than just elegance—a captivating ghost story adds an intriguing layer to its history.

The hotel is famously haunted by the Green Lady, believed to be the daughter of a former owner. Legend has it she met a tragic end in a horse-riding accident, possibly crushed by her mount, and passed away in what is now room 406. Dressed in a green riding cloak, her spirit is said to linger, with guests and staff reporting sightings, unexplained noises, moving objects, and even pets refusing to enter the room. Renowned TV spiritualist Derek Acorah once described encountering her as a shy, beautiful young lady, cementing her place in the hotel’s lore. Far from a menacing presence, the Green Lady is considered a friendly spirit, so much so that the hotel has named its restaurant in her honor.
Whether you’re drawn by the Victress Tote’s refined craftsmanship or the mystique of the Green Lady, Thainstone House Hotel offers a unique blend of luxury and history. Visit to experience it for yourself—perhaps you’ll catch a glimpse of the spectral guest!
Additionally, Acorah reported seeing an older woman, thought to be the Green Lady’s mother or grandmother, suggesting a familial haunting rooted in their affection for the historic building. Far from menacing, both spirits are considered friendly, and the hotel honors this legacy by naming its restaurant after the Green Lady.
